Opening act is the Wallflowers.

I’ve heard of them but don’t know them. Their lead singer is Bob Dylan’s son.

Wallflowers are pretty good. I remember their album when I was in college (25 years ago wtf), one headlight was a good song, among a few others. What's embarrassing, as a stupid kid I didn't really listen/know much about Bob Dylan other than his legacy, so when folks said this was Bob Dylan's son I didn't really care, lol.

Years ago, I was in Serbia and spray painted on the side of a wall was the saying "Clapton is god". LOL Had no idea who that was, so had to look him up. I assume they are speaking of the same guy.

Wearing my merch. It’s cold in here.

I hope you enjoy yourselves. It’s my understanding that you’re not supposed to wear the shirt of the concert you’re at.

Fun time! How was it?

[jon-nyc]

Fantastic. Amazing vibe. He did a lot of the classics but half the time they just jammed amazing blues.

[jon-nyc]

He’s still got it. Voice and guitar. I’m no aficionado so I can’t tell you ‘gee, when he was younger he used to do XYZ in that solo and he doesn’t now’. So he may have retreated a bit. But I sure didn’t notice it.

What the more experienced blues men - musicians in general I suppose - learn is when not to play to leave space. With Clapton’s nerve challenges I’m sure he has as well. BB King is a great example.
