E.C. lit up "Dreams," but Derek's solo torched it. And the "Layla" finale was the emotional high everyone wanted, but when it came time for Warren to lay waste to "Little Wing" -- really, all three of them did -- the whole Beacon was pins and needly. This one will stick with me forever. Clapton returns tonight (that's a certainty), and I'd be willing to bet on more Layla tunes, a classic blues, and, from the ABB side of the house, Liz Reed. 24 hours later, the standouts were “Revival” (with a mesmerizing Haynes solo I wished I’d written more about); “Whipping Post”; the contrast in intensity and tenderness in Gregg’s vocals on “Done Somebody Wrong” and “Oncoming Traffic”; the sick nasty “Schoolgirl,” and, from the Clapton mini-set, both “Dreams” and “Little Wing.” E.C. lit up “Dreams,” but Derek’s solo torched it.

Obviously anybody who caught Trey and Page were stoked, but I feel like people who caught any other night other than number 8 must feel like they picked the wrong night. This past summer when they played Mansfield Mass there was a lot of talk in the lot about Summer '08 being their last tour because of Greg's health... This run couldn't prove them more wrong Man, thats fucking wild.
