One of my all time favorite songs from Derek and the Dominos featuring Eric Clapton, is Layla! This song came out in 1971 and to this very day is an all time classic.

Now we get to see the Legendary Eric Clapton right here in Michigan at Little Caesars Arena on Saturday, September 10.

Tickets will go on sale on Friday, May 20 at 9 a.m. Tickets start at $69.50 for one of the best concerts you will ever see.

It's amazing that Eric Clapton has been performing since the 1960's. He's been in at least nine groups over several decades. According to whereseric.com:
