Here is a link to information on the first date of the tour which was Glasgow: http://www.whereseric.com/news/2006/05/clapton-set-list-review-secc-glasgow-08-may-2006.html Note the set of songs being played. It is good to see some neglected tunes from EC's past included; "Everybody Oughta Make A Change," is a GREAT piece of material off of a critically acclaimed album Clapton put out many, many years ago, titled "Money and Cigarettes." Anyway, truly an interesting mix of songs, however, I wish Eric would put "Wonderful Tonight" to bed. It is played at every performance it seems and I have seen Eric about 12 or 13 times and it has certainly been played at all of those dates that were done after the release of the "Slowhand" album from whence the song came. I know the tune was written by Eric as a tribute and memory to Patti and I wonder if his not letting go of the tune ("Layla" has been played most every stop too since he and she split) means he can't completely let go of her. But he is married now, and happily we are told so perhaps the playing of these tunes is just a co-ink-e-dinkie. --Martin
