Eric Clapton at PNC

May 23, 2008

Clapton headlined last night at the PNC and I was lucky enough to score two tickets, so of course I asked my 16 year old son to join me. It was a brisk night and thankfully no rain. EC was in great form and his band is quite up to the accompanying task – great keyboard player – who is that guy?

eric claptonWhat a magnificent sound he gets from his stunning signature Stratocaster painted Ferrari Grigio Silverstone (or is it Pewter)? We know where you can get a great deal on one in your choice of colors -www.JerseyShoreMusic.com

Check out www.whereseric.com to view the set list and reviews. You can buy EC merchandise at reasonable prices there as well. They wanted $40.00 for a T shirt at the venue – between that and the price of gas and $8.00 beers, well you get the idea…

Robert Randolph and the Family Band opened the night – an incredibly cookin NJ band, hailing from Morristown – I’ve never heard anybody wail on a pedal steel guitar like he does – he went head to head, trading licks w/Clapton during the encore – amazing work. They’ll be playing at the shore this summer, so keep your eyes out for them!

So – we want to hear from you – about your favorite Jersey Bands – upcoming shows, reviews, etc. This is your place to promote! Enjoy the Memorial Day Weekend!

JSM – great gear – great prices
