18 Aug 08
Eric Clapton and His Band continued on their trek around Europe on the final leg of the Summer 2008 Tour. One fan in attendance checked in with Where’s Eric! to report that the concert in Munchen, Germany on 17 August 2008 ranks within the very best EC concerts she has ever attended …. it was "concise, fierce and simply stunning". EC was in excellent form while Doyle Bramhall’s supporting guitar work was also top notch. Chris Stainton delivered terrific keyboard solos. Although almost all songs could be considered "highlights" the best of the best were "Here But I’m Gone", "Outside Woman Blues," "Isn’t It A Pity," "Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad", "Little Queen of Spades," "Layla" and "Cocaine."
