Eric Clapton Announces Four U.S. Shows

eric-clapton-50-yearsAfter revealing earlier this year that he has been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy, a disorder that has made it difficult for him to play guitar, Eric Clapton surprised fans this weekend with an announcement of four North American shows in 2017. Two will take place in New York and two in Los Angeles.

The shows, being billed as “A Celebration of 50 Years of Music,” were announced on Clapton’s official Facebook page, accompanied by the caption “Exciting News and More Details to Come Tomorrow.”
