Crossroads Guitar Festival

[Pete]

Any one get a chance to see or hear Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival. I saw it on PBS the other night. It was really amazing and makes me think I need to start listening to some blues. Here are the performers they aired on PBS I guess there were a lot more.

Eric Clapton

Ron Block

Doyle Bramhall II

J.J. Cale

Robert Cray

Jerry Douglas

Nathan East

Honeyboy Edwards

Vince Gill

Buddy Guy

B.B. King

Robert Lockwood, Jr.

John Mayer

Robert Randolph

Carlos Santana

Hubert Sumlin

James Taylor

Dan Tyminski

Jimmie Vaughan

Joe Walsh

ZZ Top

Others that PBS didn't air

Jeff Beck
Neil Schon
Steve Vai
Bo didley
Booker T
Eric Johnson


There were lots of great jams with Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, Doyl Brahall all together and many great performances. Robert Cray impressed me the most. Joe walsh was good too and his performance with James Taylor was fun.

John Mayer was a big suprise. I thought he was just some dope with a dopey song but holy crap he can really play a guitar!

Jeff only played one song it was good but to bad that he only played that one song ,Neil play before I got there I was about a hour late..It was planed for Eric and Jeff and ZZTOP to play together but for some reason it did not happen..it was geting stormy....and they stoped the concert after ZZTOP played a few songs Big let down for me,....the rest of the show was cool!
