He played a concert here in ... wowww ... 1974. A band with Jamie Oldacker,
Yvonne Elliman, etc... Concert started at 8pm with some Robert Stigwood
California close-harmony group who were boe-ed away. Clapton got on stage by
8.40pm, this was just after a drugs-period but now he started boozing so they
were continuously bringing beer on stage and the drunker he became the better
the music. He gave a 25 minute version of Layla. Eventually the concert promotor
cut electricity to the amps at a quarter to one in the morning ... buses waiting
outside, police doing overtime, etc... What a night.
 
I understand he's much more behaved now.
