Eric Clapton returned to Prague on May 4 for a concert at the O2 Arena, his first appearance in the city in four years. The show marked his fourth performance in Prague, and at the venue, where he first played on July 20, 2006, when it was known as the Sazka Arena.
Backing Eric on all dates this year is his long-standing band: Nathan East (bass/vocals), Doyle Bramhall II (guitar/vocals), Sonny Emory (drums), Chris Stainton (keyboards), Tim Carmon (Hammond organ/keyboards), with Sharon White and Katie Kissoon on backing vocals. Andy Fairweather Low and The Low Riders set the tone for the evening with their blend of soulful rock and blues and will be appearing as special guests on all remaining European dates.
The set list—a mix of songs from Eric’s extensive catalog and celebrated blues classics—was:
01. Badge
02. Key To The Highway
03. Hoochie Coochie Man
04. I Shot The Sheriff
05. Kindhearted Woman
06. Nobody Knows You When You’re Down And Out
