Eric Clapton Reviews

HE WAS AMAZING HE STILLS HAS IT!

Went with my boyfriend and we both were surprised at how incredible he still was and Jimmy.. I have always wanted to see him he was on my list. And I'm so grateful that he was still so good. Enjoyed the whole concert I felt I was in the presence of greatness.

3 GENERATIONS ENJOYED

My 3rd birthday with Clapton. 1st was Phoenix with my son 4 years ago. My son came for me but left ready for more. 2nd with my son 2years ago in New Orleans, shortly after Ida. This last in hometown of Denver. Son again, who forced his 16YO son to attend. My first daughter was excited to come as well. He was visibly older than 2 years ago, depending on his backup band more but his fingers…..still 20 and breathtaking. My reluctant grandson was in total awe. He may be an egomaniac in person, definitely does nothing to charm his audience. One song into another without a word spoken. But…if you get a chance you need to experience genius in person. Clapton may not be God, but he is most definitely inspiring, breathtaking and awesome to watch.

STILL HAS IT!

Having not seen Eric Clapton since Blind Faith, I had very high expectations and was not disappointed. His distinct sound still rings true, and he gave it his all. When he leans his head back, you are in for a treat as he let’s himself go. Foot tapping, body swaying, he is still into making some great music.

ERIC CLAPTON AT CHASE CENTER

I was fortunate enough to see Eric Clapton at the new Chase Center. He did not let me down. Alot of music from his past and present. the place was rocking to a huge crowd. His backup band featured world class musicans. The show did not lag. I would pay to see him again but I feel that is unlikely due to his limited schedule and venue. The show did start slow with Jimmie Vaughn. I would be nice if he featured his back up musicians more instead of just himself. Those Texas blues get stagnant after a while. The new Chase Center is still working out the kinks. The ushers and usherettes are learning the ropes. I hope they work it out soon. I was amazed at the lack of restrooms. While trying to find one was very difficult. You could easily miss a song while searching for a restroom. All said, the show was great and Chase Center looks like a promising place to see a concert or a Warriors game.

SUBDUED ERIC CLAPTON

As a more than 45 year fan of Eric Clapton, I found his concert of Oct 7, 2018 very disappointing. After watching has been Jimmy Vaughn, whom I saw at a county fair 20 years ago, along with Gary Clark Jr, a very good musician who belongs to fans younger than me, Eric basically featured his talented keyboard player, who was exceptional. Eccept for brief flurries, Eric appeared to be happy letting his band solo, in the same order on almost every song. I am not sure what some people saw, but I was disappointed.

SUBDUED CLAPTON

Don’t get me wrong, Eric’s still got it as far as the playing. Acoustic set was pretty bland and standard. Going through the motions. He just did not seem into it. I have seen him live so many times and he just did not seem to be into playing last nights show. Just walked off stage in the end with a wave. Really? And the Santana pop in for what a minute of playing. Waste of time. Did not add anything to the show. Venue is so large they really over did it and the sound/acoustics is not good at all. And with prices what they were!

ERIC CLAPTON

Eric in my opinion is, was, and always will be amongst the absolute best. That being said. As for the new chase center, amongst the worst. The sound system in that place is pathetic. An absolute insult to have as poor a system as that for Eric to perform with. I have seen Clapton perform at least a dozen times. Always an excellent show. But not last night at Chase center. They did him a horrible injustice. As a bay area resident I must apologize to Eric. So Sorry
