These photographs of Eric Clapton were taken during the Slowhand tour. If it had not have been for the -25 degrees outside it would have been a capacity crowd. During the encore he sang Layla and let someone in the band do the lead solo. I remember being told by a bouncer that I was only to take pictures for the first 15 minutes and call it quits. This necessitated the constant moving in and out of the crowed to avoid the security goons. There is something wrong if a performer of his stature can't do a concert with a few photographers working with existing light and no flash. If you have ever been backstage during a concert you will see that with all the lights you can't see passed the first 15 rows.
