Shitty iPhone Pic from merch stand Sunday. They are only putting out a proportionate number of copies for sale at each of the 7 RAH shows because they are selling so fast, and they want people to have a chance at each show to snag a copy. The MSG poster sold out and they only had 2 shows there. Same quantity at both venues. You do the math.

P.S. - I love the event t-shirt: the RAH made up of guitars is a great idea!

We're back, dude. Took off Friday just before 6pm; landed back in the ATL just after 1pm yesterday. A 50-hour whirlwind in London itself (and that included 11 hours of sleep on Saturday night after we brilliantly decided to "stay up" and after our third (or was it fifth) wind got to bed after midnight. We also got to see the fine folks at The Flood Gallery. Great show and great trip.

And, of course, seeing Dave's poster flying out of the merch stand was awesome.

Thanks to TicketMan Rick I did. He got the seats last fall--long story, suffice it to say a series of events/conversations led to a serendipitous exploration of ericclapton.com. Turns out it was Eric's 175th SOLO performance at the RAH and 201st overall appearance there. And, since it sounds like he's done with shows after this weekend's final performance at RAH, it was awesome to see him in a such an historic venue.

They're filming tonight's show (5/20) for a concert DVD. There are HD cameras everywhere. They also raised the $ for the poster to 70 pounds from 50.

Yea me & my lady! It was a dream come true.
Poster was Not sold out. No excuse for raising the $, but its a business like everything else. My guess is any prints left over, go on EC Ebay store for auction. Let the E-beans collectors fight over them before DH releases his.

North Korean President Kim Jung Un's older brother is a Clapton superfan and was at Wed & Thursday's shows. Can't say I ran into him, but Slowhand sure has a huge and I mean HUGE Asian fan base who turned out for these shows.
