Eric Clapton is without doubt the greatest living guitar legend and it was obvious at the Orlando Amway Arena when he first took the stage. The performance will stand out forever in my mind as the best show I have ever seen! Slow Hand played the guitar with smooth hands and made the most difficult songs look effortless in his pursuit to please his audience. It was apleasure to be there and I felt captivated the whole time by the master of blues and rock and roll. When he played 'Wonderful Tonight', all there cosied up to there loved ones. When he played I Shot the Sheriff, the the crowed seemed to groove together, and when went on a jammed, it was sheer delight coupled with excitment. When he played 'Badge', it was the 60's all over.
Best show ever!

We've seen him in concert 6 or 7 times now, and this was possibly the best performance yet! He is an amazing artist. When he picks up his guitar music just flows from his fingertips as easily as he breathes. He is truly the best at what he does.

This concert was everything I hoped for - he did not disappoint. Over 1 1/2 hours of solid playing. The band was great of course, but Eric was the star for sure. Constant playing, and his vocals were great, too. I was weak in the knees from the first strum of his guitar. I am so glad I got to hear this man perform in person! He is an icon in the business, and I count myself fortunate to have heard him. If you are into great guitar playing, and great songs, this is the concert to see. Worth every penny in my opinion.

after all these years I am still amazed at how Eric Clapton moved my soul . Stevie Winwood was everything I hoped he would be and more. This group of journeyman took the audience on a wonderful tour of their early and great contribution to the rock canon. I was stilled amazed after all these years. The audience responded to the classic greats of: "Blind Faith" and "Traffic" and they were equally moved by their loving and faithful interpretation of the blues. Clapton may not be God but he is certainly a recipient of some of His gifts. We were lucky enough to witness it. We were most satisfied. Winwood was in exceptional voice and never failed to amaze me.

Unlike many people, I am perfectly capable of going to see a beloved performer live, and coming out saying the performance was lousy. Having seen well over 100 shows, I also have a broad perspective on what the range of performance quality can be. Delightedly, in this case, I had no reason to provide a curmudgeonly report. The presentation was spare - - no elaborate stage sets, just musicains and instruments, with large video screens strategically placed for the benefit of those without close seats. While I can enjoy elaborate theaterical stage presentations, I do not consider them necessary. Most important are the sound quality and the playing of the musicians. For this show, both were outstanding. I won't rave about how great the two featured players are - -anyone reading this already knows that. What I will say is that they played as an integrated band, not two superstars alternating being featured, which is a prime risk in a show like this. They were also in top form. Each clearly delights in and admires the other's abilities. Winwood would often be grinning like a maniac, watching appreciatively, while Clapton took a bit of the spotlight. The show was over two hours of steady music. Bottom line, if you liked Blind Faith, or either of the two musicians separately, or both, you will not be dispappointed if you have a chance to see this show. This is not superstar grandstanding, or old guys going through the motions for a big payday. This is a band in its prime, playing a rich catalogue that they believe in, as a real working band, exceptionally well.

No glitz, no laser lights, no pyrotechnics, just two, veteran, musical viruosos playing better than ever!! These rockers know no age limit! The audience was everyone from teenagers to sixty-somethings, and it was just plain nice. People were there to have a good time and enjoy the music and they got everything that they bargained for! These guys could continue to draw multiple generations for generations to come, because they obviously enjoy what they are doing, and that is playing music and entertaining. I would be willing to pay the same price to go again!!

Incredible from begining to end. The casual atmosphere as these two magnificent performers come out and begin to play is overwhelming. It's emotional and inspiring to see them on the large screen and in person making keyboards and guitars produce what seems like extensions of their own selves. Masters that compliment each other so well, in such a perfect setting. Don't miss it!

I love Eric Clapton. I listen to him every day. It had been my dream to see him live, and I had high expectations. He was technically flawless, but the energy was low and I didn't enjoy it. Perhaps because the crowd was older there wasn't much ambiance? I couldn't really put my finger on it. The liveliest the crowd ever got was when he did an acoustic version of Tears in Heaven, if that says anything ... !!! Blah.

This was the first time for me to see Clapton live and it was an awesome experience. The guitar was just an extension of him. The R&B riffs were absolutely magical. The notes flowed out of his fingers like water and the audience drank it up!! If you couldn't feel his blues, then you weren't breathing.

This concert is for music lovers. Dan Aykroyd as emcee provided intros and commentary at intervals, and the rest was just performance plain and simple. Many styles of playing from jazz to blues to hard rock were represented, and in all cases the musicianship, camaraderie, and joy of the performers came through. And of course it was awesome to see the biggest names in guitar all in one place, doing their thing for a good cause, too. Just a fabulous evening of great, great music.

This was a great show. Both electric and acoustic sets by Mr. Clapton. As a bonus, for us not him I am sure it was his birthday as well. Kind of a cool touch with the audience sing you Happy Birthday..
It's amazing that he still puts on such a great performance after 50 years of touring! I'd highly recommend catching a show if you can. It was certainly the highlight of my month!

The concert was unbelievable!!! To see this legendary guitarist and true rock star was a truly great experience. Eric was on the stage but had the spot light directed on another guitar player at least three times during the show. I thought he had left the stage like other performers I had seen do before. However, the large screens showed differently. I thought that was a classy thing for him to do being as Clapton is regarded as one of THE BEST guitarists ever!
He looked great and played over 2 hours straight.

Couldn't get tickets to the first three Crossroads, but we bought the concert DVD's.. We got lucky and got two tickets for the Saturday night session. It far exceeded expectations. This is a fundraiser for Eric's Crossroads Antigua rehab center. Everybody we met who had been at Friday night's concert raved about how great it had been. Saturday's concert had to be better. Five straight hours of incredible blues, rock, and country-rock guitar icons with original Blues Brother Dan Aykroyd as MC. Five hours that went way too fast. I got to check off a bunch of my bucket list artists in one evening. I also discovered new interests -- Vince Gill & Keith Urban. Heard a show stopping trio of Gregg Allman, Warren Haynes, and Derek Trucks do an incredible "Midnight Rider." Unfortunately, the full Allman Brothers Band only played on Friday. This was true for several of the artists (B.B. King, Booker T., Steve Cropper, Matt Murphy), but ticket availability and cost limited us to one evening. If Eric has another Crossroads Guitar Festival, we're going if we can get tickets -- both nights next time. In the meantime, get all the concert Blu-Rays. In some respects, the Blu-Rays might be superior (we'll see the Friday concert) but seeing this live was an unbelievable treat. By the way, the opening of the final Eric Clapton set at 11 PM started with a spotlight on an unannounced guest -- Keith Richards, who thrilled the MSG crowd with three songs. And then Eric just leveled the hall with a performance that demonstrated why he just might be the all-time greatest rock & blues guitarist we will ever hear.

Solid night of music. Jeff Beck was spot on!! Buddy Guy was great on acoustic, but would have liked to see him play electric. Clapton was great and Keith Richards was a pleasant surprise. Taj Mahal was fantastic! The end of the night all star jam though was a mess. Many of the players could not be heard during their solo protions, and it went on way too long. Other than that, I had a great time!
