Clapton Opens Royal Albert Hall Residency

18 May 13

VIDEO INCLUDED! Eric Clapton & His Band returned to London’s Royal Albert Hall on Friday, 17 May for the first of 7 concerts. Eric has likened the venue to playing in his front room. The Albert has a low stage and the audience is closer to the band on all sides than other venues the tour regularly stops at. It must have been quite a night, because London area fans have only sent in the set list! (If you were there, and want to send in a review, email us at info@whereseric.com).

One lucky fan snagged a copy of the band’s actual set list and for this tour, EC has built in a few possible nightly changes. Night two of seven happens tonight.  Gary Clark Jr. is support.
