Current Clapton band lineup?

[Aardvark]

I just got tickets to see EC in Atlanta in March, was wondering if anybody knows whether Trucks or some other interesting player might be on stage with him.

No Trucks, no Bramhall, no Nathan East. But you do get Steve Gadd.

Okay, that's nice. So, who else will wield a guitar on stage?

Id' go just to see Steve Gadd....what a drummer...

Bramhall is doing Arc Angels reunited. Derek is on tour with his own band.

I had the pleasure of playing with Willie Weeks when we both played in Vince Gill's band. He's a gentleman, and an absolute monster rock solid groove bass player. One of the best.

This may be "the same old band" but what a band it is!
