Geetarz Comments:

What a fun night, and a drastic improvement over the thunderstorm of the previous night.

Before the show I had the pleasure of hanging out with friends I don't get to see often enough.

Let me just take this time to say that during Robert's opening set, I saw our friend James do the most amazing thing. I won't describe further, but if you were there, and saw it, you'd be shaking your head (on a stick).

I also owe a big thanks to Richie for the hook-up on a sweet second row seat. I know, a true hardcore taper sacrifices to be back FOB, but screw that, I was there to have fun! Most of the show was taped from second row, stage left, but during the Layla rush we all just upgraded ourselves and ended up right in front of the stage.

A huge thanks to the ever-gracious Sambo#8 and Tracy for their hospitality and of course tours of the private Annex to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It was great seeing Rick and Anita, Ron, and yes, even Steve, who showed up with some special attire for all of us - no overpriced Clapton t-Shirts for us!

I hope you enjoy the show as much as we did.
