Eric Clapton has a few, rare gigs ahead of his Crossroads Guitar Festival on September 20th and 21st in Dallas. The first one was at the Chase Center in San Francisco last night. Clapton’s band includes Doyle Bramhall II, Nathan East, Chris Stainton, Paul Carrack, Steve Gadd, Sharon White and Katie Kissoon.

Clapton treated San Fran to a smattering of classics from across his career including “Badge” from his early days with Cream to “Tears in Heaven” which he recorded in the 90s.

After the set, Clapton emerged with longtime friend Santana for the encore. The two guitar legends jammed on Joe Cocker’s “High Time We Went.”
