Thank you Yuki!!!! I really appreciate you taking the time to post this wonderful performance Thank you so much. It means a great deal to me, as a life long fan. We must stand up and believe in what is right. This S**T has got to stop and we cannot let these haters in America tell us how we should live. His new song really gives us all an important voice to fight against this hypcrasy across America.
Saturday night in New Orleans, Clapton broke his vow to never to perform at a venue that requires proof of vaccination. Since he is now in the USA, perhaps he is realizing just how bad the pandemic is... especially here in southern states. His next scheduled show, at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, now requires either vaccine or a negative test for entry. For your loved ones...... VAX UP/MASK UP.
Thanks for sharing. Going to Nashville next week. Keep hoping Joe Bonamassa might drop by and do a guest number like Eric did with him at RAH! I’m going to keep saying it and maybe it will happen! 😆🙏🤞🙏

@@waynelynch3862 Venues and local ordinances always in control of vax requirements and New Orleans added that after ticket sales. Eric would have had to to a breech of contract cancellation. And Nashville requirement does not start until Oct 2 after Eric’s show. I checked after I saw your comment because my friend has only had 1st shot. Ticketmaster has been great about flagging any venue for Covid requirements but they can change so everyone needs to check before going to any event.
@@jobo-and-mo Thanks for the update. Like most southern states, Tennessee is having a Covid surge. The National Guard has been brought in to assist Tennessee hospitals this week. Too bad that Bridgestone Arena is waiting until Oct 2nd. Nashville is like my city. They gained some ground and then they let their guard down, acting like Covid is gone. Indoor Concerts are Super Spreader events. It is just not fair for the thousands of health care workers that have died from Covid. I already lost 2 friends to this pandemic. Glad that Joe Bonamassa is not coming until after the Covid requirements kick in. I saw Clapton in his prime, during the Journeyman tour & it was incredible. I'm not impressed with his current show. Only 1.5 hours and I don't care for half the Set List. Reminds me of a cruise ship Legends in Concert. I would love to see Joe Bonamassa. He played here at our smaller concert hall before Covid, but tickets were $100.00+. I refuse to pay that price unless Hendrix returned from the grave. Same for The Eagles and Glenn Frey:) I have seen all my favorite groups back in the day, including Hendrix, Zeppelin, Santana, Eagles, George Harrison, Bowie etc...
@@waynelynch3862 I will raise you one. Saw all 4 Beatles - twice. 😆. But FYI unless govt. does mandate for all, you have to look at each venue. The Ryman has issued some extra requirements per artist request but not all including none for Joe B. You have to look at each venue, each artist. And you can still get Joe tickets for $81 at Ryman. $100 gets you a very good seat. Shoot B’ham amp was selling last row $100 for Chris Stapleton! Joe’s tickets have remained consistent and you can get some price break if you buy on fan presale before public sale.
@@jobo-and-mo I will raise you one. I saw Hendrix at Atlanta Pop Festival 1970. Google the line up. It included, Bob Seger, Spirit, Ten Years After, B.B. King, Grand Funk Railroad, It's a Beautiful Day and many more. I was there just to see Hendrix. The others were just a bonus. 2 months later Hendrix was gone and I cried like a baby. If he had lived, maybe there would not be Rap/HipHop (joking) The Beatles would of been a treat, unless it was a concert where you girls were screaming so much that nobody heard the music:) Then again, that was part of "Beatlemania."
Glad I saw the electric version of Layla during the Journeyman tour. Ft. Worth review> ''The acoustic version sucks all of the angst and power out of the song. For someone who has been making music for six decades, an hour and a half? Really? I guess you always leave them wanting more. Or something.''
i love both versions but the riff on electrifc layla is all time.think thast the one he should play live. also, the journeyman tour featured clapton at his all time best. ur lucky.
@@Cristian-vm1bg Agree, the electric ''Layla'' is timeless. At the ''Journeyman'' concert he blew the roof off the place when he opened w/''Pretending.'' He opened with ''Pretending'' again at this show, but it was underwhelming imho. Here is the incredible Set List from the ''Journeyman'' concert . "Pretending" "Running on Faith" "No Alibis" "I Shot the Sheriff" "White Room" "Can't Find My Way Home" "Bad Love" "Before You Accuse Me" "Old Love" "Badge" "Wonderful Tonight" "Cocaine" "Layla" "Cross Road Blues" "Sunshine of Your Love"
@@waynelynch3862 white room and running on faith particularly during that tour were so amazing. Gah. I’m gonna just tell people I was there (even tho I was 2). Amazing set list. I don’t think it’s exaggerating to say that tour featured some of the best guitar playing of all time
And I kinda Agree, this wasn’t the best of Clapton at this show. I wanted to see him one more time kind of as a pilgrimage since he’s gonna be done soon. So I was happy he was still able to rip it a little. But yeah This one for me was just about seeing the legend in person one last time
@@Cristian-vm1bg You started young:) white room and running on faith were incredible. Heck, the whole set was. I was never a big fan of ''I Shot the Sheriff'' but it was cool at the concert. He is an amazing guitar player. My profile photo shows my favorite:) I finally saw Hendrix at Atlanta Pop Festival in 70. Two months later he was gone & I cried like a baby. So much music we would never hear. Did you see Clapton yet or one of the upcoming shows? Please post at this thread and let me know how it was. I hope he will add a few more songs. I was shocked but not disappointed that ''Cocaine'' was not included since the fans always go bonkers for that one.
loved this one last night. but omg. the clapping by the folks towards the back was throwing everything off. STOP CLAPPING OUT OF TIME. go take some percussion classes and try again.
My guess is there were quite a lot of unvaccinated people at this concert. Which means Eric Clapton charged people copious amounts of money to attend a likely Super Spreader Event! How quaint! 😷🎸🎤🎶
@@win7sony sorry folks, I’ve seen Covid destroy too many lives. It’s a very real virus that kills. Hopefully no one got infected and, much worse, dies. 😷 up! ✌🏻
@@andreakerry3071 Yeah I am. I just saw him do it last Sat night and I thought the same thing. I'm guessing he does this version as he has no one to play the slide guitar part. I never liked this version at all.
@@jamestemple8970 Well ,we are all entitled to an opinion,!you don't like this version,I've never unerstood the expression ' it sucks, but basically you preferred the original one ,And I enjoyed both !
