Re: MSG & Clapton



Kevin, re: 

>Mark brings up an interesting thought.  How about EC as the second   
guitarist for the MSG shows?  I don't suppose he'd do much more than a 
cameo at Hyde Park (since he's playing his own set), but I wouldn't   
consider it to be out of the question to have him play at MSG.  He and   
Pete are good friends, and whether or not you like his solo stuff, there   
certainly can't be any question that he could handle it.  Personally, I   
can't think of any better choice, if there must be another guitarist.

That would work great in terms of performance... but what of Pete's ego? I
think one of the reasons we didn't have Joe Walsh for '89 or any other "name"
guitarist, was due to Pete not wanting anyone coming back to him saying,
"hey, he played that song better than you!" Always remember where Pete wants
the spotlight...
