Eric Clapton at Ford Amphitheartre 5-03-08
This EC show was Rocking and Blues.He is the Strat-Cat.I loved it,the show at Ford Amphitheatre ,Tampa was a guitars players dream,pure Eric ripping on the guitar,no fluff.Just plan and simple rocking and blues guitar.The stage has a nice back drop that brings the band in closer and intimate.Eric went right into the l songs no time between them no talking.Eric and the band looked they were have a good time and I have never see Eric walk around the stage some much.The sit down part of the show was just so good.Eric played 6string,12string and the electric.The video for the show was directed very well,like the Crossroads shows ,(which I went to both of them)no MTV stuff here,on there hands and guitars or faces when singing.The sound system was really great ,clean,loud,and clear,also good projection on the backdrop.I have seen EC for 40 years ,I loved the band with Derek Trucks,I would have to say this is just E.C burning on the guitar and thats what I want to see.The show was about 2hr.It is a must see show if you love guitar playing and EC.Robert Randolph was a good choice for opening and the Crossroads jam was a treat.I loved "Little Wing".
