Here's a link to a full Clapton concert; Basel 2013. Enjoy!

EC is with a DJ II he's had for a while now - stick/silver dial?

Chris Stainton, the keyboardist (without the hat) seems to also be wearing a DJ II?

Thanks Eric!

I am downloading it now for future watching.

I cannot watch the entire show right now but going quickly through it I can tell it's going to be a good one! With Andy Fairweather-Low and Chris Stainton you cannot go wrong.

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for sharing.

I knew of Andy Fairweather-Low because he was with Clapton on Unplugged but was amazed to see Chris Stainton's resume.

Good company indeed!

That's amazing, thank you!

He's also been a regular tour member of Clapton's as well!

[Viv Savage]

Thanks Eric. More links about EC the better.

[sco]

Amazing link. Thanks.

[martini22]

Thanks for posting the link. I recall him discussing his watch habit in his book (expensive Pateks, etc.). It is interesting that he wears pretty basic Rolex models as daily wearers. I remember he wore a white-dial EXP II for a couple of years not too long ago.

It is always fun to watch him play. My favorite periods of his were '65-'70 and '88-'92.

I have a '89 Fender Clapton strat in "7-UP Green," and although I'm no musician, it is fun to hit a few good notes on that thing.

Thanks!

I'll have to re-read the book and look for when he mentions his watches!

He's been wearing mostly Rolex for a long time. Though I have seen pictures with him and his platinum Patek 2499 - that was sold at auction. Clapton sold a lot of his pieces, including many collector's items through Christie's a few years back.

I did notice the white dial EXP II - which I think he also recently sold at auction.

Thank you for sharing.

Always a fantastic band! Though I've come to love Doyle B. II on guitar...
