Stop number four of my Clapton/Winwood tour across America. Usually a Mandalay Bay person
but chose to stay at MGM because of th e show. I arrived late to a reservation screw-up
and lots of yelling. I knew right then, Vegas was not going to be easy. About 2 1/2 hours
before showtime I went to the arena and noticed that they had metal detectors at the door.
That was not what I wanted to see. I also needed to meet someone to give them their ticket.
I started scoping out the entrance trying to come up with a plan. As I was watching I
saw a woman hand her purse to the guard without passing through the metal detector. I had
my opening and went to the entrance. She looked in my pack and didnt find the electronics.
She told me I needed to check my bag at bag check. When I saw her turn around I went in.
I still needed to hand off the ticket. With help from someone who I met online I had help
with the ticket transfer. Good seats, hot show and aside from two glitches, a nice recording.
There is a cut in Had to Cry Today when the recorder went on pause for a short bit. Layla also
has a cut compliments of the drunk next to me. He accidently hit my gear and pulled a cable.
The only other annoyance was the old folks right in front who talked to much.
