Eric Clapton Opening, Pretending. Fort Worth, Texas 09.13.2021

[@iansnyder274]

So happy to see Eric killin' it ....God bless him....you can't keep a good man down....way to go Eric....BTW Doyle always killin' it too!

[@thewordofgord]

God bless Eric for showing up and playing for us. Really.

[@angelavermaak2591]

Bravo Eric! Howre your hands/fingers now.? Sending love from South Africa 🇿🇦 🥰🌷

[@timholt8369]

What some need to see is besides Eric being a guitar legend, he is the consummate musician. The song and the sound is his biggest goal. He never lets his ego ruin the song. God Bless Eric. There are few like him and fewer that have lasted this long.

[@dgclassic5591]

What a Classic tune!! It's so awesome to see that Doyle Bramhall Jr is on tour with Clapton.

[@NINZIE1949]

Still the best, long live E.C.

[@rbrjb1959]

Thank you so much for posting this legendary humanitarian , Yuki, and his return to stage at 7X yrs ,- 5+ decades of !serving and pursuing truth in Liberty and love. Blessings all !

[@midgetworld228]

This is such a great opening song. Last time I saw him in Toronto he opened with this and it was a stunner!

[@larrydenengelsen]

Never was a big fan, but since i heard his story about the jab, and his song 'This Has Gotta Stop' , i'm in! 💪🏻

[@markhaus1329]

Well you should have been a big fan. LOL I have been one since I was a young teenager and I'm 64 years old now.

[@larrydenengelsen]

@@markhaus1329 i know i know😅 I was always a true and loyal Kiss fan for 42 years! (Oct.2nd i am 52) , bit since they talked about 'idiots who dont get the jab and die' and Gene Simmons dont care about that, i am out!

[@markhaus1329]

@@larrydenengelsen Yes sir I heard about that with kiss. Second jab that Eric Clapton got affected his hands made them numb he didn't know if he'd be able to play again. I don't blame him. Not everybody knows that he got the shots and all they wanted to do is criticize him. Not me I was with him from the get-go. I went to see Eric Clapton at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville Tennessee last Tuesday and it was freaking awesome! I've seen him several times live and it's always been great but I think this last one was the best and the man is 76 years old. Unbelievable.!

[@lb1983ify]

I can watch Eric Clapton all night. He is a legend and a Gold Standard Legend by all definitions of the word. Thank you so much for sharing. Great to see Chris Stainton, Steve Gadd, Bramhall the 2nd and Nathan East together again. This is a true team effort and wonderful perforances. We must stand up and believe in what is right. This S**T has got to stop and we cannot let these haters in America tell us how we should live. His new song really gives us all an important voice to fight against this hypcrasy across America.

[@lb1983ify]

@Eric Clapton Thank you so much for the wonderful response! Please continue to be the wonderful and amazing person that you are. Once Chinna Disease in under control, I hope to be able to watch you again. Please continue to produce wonderful songs about fighting against hyporcrasy in America. I will continue to be life long fan. Stay safe, stay wonderful, stay young, stay away from Bat Soup, stay Golden.

[@lb1983ify]

@Eric Clapton Absolutely. THis is Kevin Sonney from Seattle but you can call me KSS. I would really enjoy sharing my contact information and understanding you on a more personal level. Your music is just amazingly wonderful and has brought meaning into my life. I truly wanted to thank you for helping the develop wonderful memories throughout my life. And I find you attractive, not just musically. Thanks again. This was Kevin Sonney from Seattle, but you can call me KSS.

[@lb1983ify]

@Eric Clapton Let me go to the store today and buy a phone. Once I buy a phone, i will share my phone number with you. Perhaps you can come to Seattle. There are so many wonderful places I want to show you. I look forwward to creating some wonderful memories with you in Seattle. Thank you so much for your patience, while I go to the store to buy a phone. And then once I have a phone, I will share with you my phone number.

I'm a true EC fan, but he's showing his age. I attended 29 shows starting in 1974 Ocean Blvd tour, but God Bless him, not my favorite set list out of so much material, Thanks for posting

[@onewordhereonewordthere6975]

He was doing fine until he got the j a b ! Very SAD .THE SECOND IS STILL DOING DAMAGE . We he said all I can do is " TO BECOME A NUISANCE IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED WHEN I NEEDED IT THE MOST . I LIVED VERY CLOSE TO THE BIG HOUSE IN MACON ga. WHEN MR. CLAPTON AND COMPANY WROTE THE ALBUM LAYLA. AND ASSORTED LOVE SONGS . I PRAY THAT HE'S THE BEST NUISANCE EVER !

[@onewordhereonewordthere6975]

@Eric Clapton it will be an a VERY undeserving honor ..I will tomorrow morning Wow . I pray that you're feeling well and doing better. I would like to know more about what's going on with the symptoms. Thank you sir.

[@onewordhereonewordthere6975]

@Eric Clapton ,,🎸😎😉😉👍🤗 if you see him again ask him for a t shirt signed by everyone. Because I sure as heck didn't have one on when I left the car lot. JOKING sir . Everyday carpe diem. WORD .

God bless Eric for not allowing them to pump him full of anymore poison.

[@gladismabelminuti3456]

GOOD SHOW. 🎸🌟🎶💙

[@pabloperez4063]

The mobile recorded very well

[@JRAFF145]

Sounds good. I'm a big fan. I've checked the set lists for these first few shows. A little critical at the lack of spontaneity. He seems stuck in a cycle. I saw him in Sept. 2019. The crowd was lame, as they were way more interested in concessions and talking.

[@HeliumContent]

Is that Nathan East on bass? I saw Clapton 30+ years ago in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and he opened with the same song!

[@SwampEye1]

Eric has to be the best looking 70 +

[@kspocketngroove3973]

who is the other drummer besides Steve Gadd? also great to see Nathan East on bass

[@nealo814]

Nice to see him out. Retire at 70? Not eric! Despite his problems hes still soloing. Sure doyle does what he would done years back but it's still.a Clapton show you still get those flourishes. Just not as intense as he used to be able to do. Last show I saw was 2014 before his health issues really started affecting his playing. I knew then it would be my last Eric show but based on this might be tempted again.

[@cragkeeper]

Didn't know Eric pulled these 90 minute wham bamm shows like some other stars from the hay days such as Robert Plant , etc..... I guess the legendary 2 and a half hour plus encore shows are but a grand memory..... except maybe Paul McCartney and The Boss.

[@waynelynch3862]

Exact song he opened w/when we saw him during the ''Journeyman'' tour 20+ years ago in his prime.That show was closer to 3 hours. This was only an hour and half. Tickets were like $25.00. This show starts at $75.00 for half as much show. I'm gonna pass.

Bro in 1990 he was only 45 years old Now he is 76 ! He is having pain in his leg and still can play better than anybody else

Dudes has got a lot of aliments and fact his vocals sound so good and he’s got emphysema is crazy. I’m just glad he can still play who cares if it’s just an hour and half still pretty damn good for a dude that’s almost 77.

[@waynelynch3862]

@@Predacon176 Many were disappointed that it was only 1.5 hours. Tickets should of reflected the short show. We all love Clapton, but this sounded underwhelming. Eric has not recorded anything worthwhile in a few years. Santana (74), Robert Plant (73) & even Willie Nelson (88!!!) still sounding great & doing ''long'' concerts when Covid allows. ZZ Top is still kicking azz (minus youngster (72) Dusty Hill R.I.P. Sadly....We are losing the musicians of my generation, but thankfully we have the music. Get Vaxed/Mask Up.

[@IrishGuitarist]

Pretending is one of my favourite EC songs. I've seen Eric live countless times, but I have to say, this was an awful version 😮🙈 - just seemed like mistake after mistake with it right from the opening 😪😪 - whatever happened to the performances like from the 24 nights album. They were incredible 👍👍 - maybe time is taking it's toll 🙈 although I hope not...

[@onewordhereonewordthere6975]

Boring and predictable, I don’t want to hear Doyle play your riffs. Corporate rock.

[@karldettling5981]

Clapton is not really that good of a player. In fact he really has been pretty lame at it all has life. I would not rate him in the top 1000. And i have played for 55 years.

[@onewordhereonewordthere6975]

Mr. Clapton like many others has had adverse reactions both of his covid jabs. The second has caused him to have (his words) excruciating pain in his fingers. It is only his love of music and his prior engagements. That you get to witness a 78-year young man play his heart out . Professional. Most definitely. A nuisance. Much more than that. As we get older we lose some speed . But if you had character you don't lose it you gain more. This dude's got some character.

This song has always SUCKED!
