Summer Music Guide 2008 Artists on Tour

Eric Clapton
Dates: May 3-June 5
Tickets: $45-$200

The music: Certainly, one goes to an Eric Clapton show to see his hits performed, and they do come in droves. Timeless tracks such as "Layla," "Cocaine" and "White Room" are as moving today as they were a quarter-century ago. That said, it is the guitar-playing that makes a Clapton concert so unique. Seeing the master up close, and watching him play one of his 80 vintage Stratocasters, is a revelation. The man truly is an artist of the rarest order, and no matter how brilliant his records are, in a live setting his genius is simply captivating.
