I’d donate a liver to go see this: Crossroads 2010
For those who don't know, Crossroads is more than a crappy Britney Spears movie. It was also a movie with "The Karate Kid" and Steve Vai as the Devil's axe-slinger.
But above all else, it's a giant celebration of guitar and a fund raiser for Eric Clapton's own rehab facility for exceedingly rich junkies and alcoholics substance abusers to recover, with a world class reputation. 2010 looks crazy good.
This line up is ri-donk-u-lous!!!!! Holy crap Batman. I would donate my liver to an inpatient to get to this gig! I've bolded my highlights for this show.
