Just thought I'd let everyone know i saw a far better show in the Saddledome Monday night than the Flames have put on for a couple years.
I watched a true legend. Mister Slowhand himself.
Fantastic!!

A battle of the goaltenders indeed. Was quite the masterpiece on either end. Not too often you see a game with no goals.

I am cheering on Calgary to maintain 8th....easier opponent for the Canucks to face if the 8th seed makes it that far in the playoffs

By far, the best scoreless game I've ever seen. It wasn't a fart-fest like pre-lockout scoreless games. End to end, especially at the end. The goalies just stood on their head. It was a fun game to watch.

Excellent Beans! I was beginning to think there was no one out there who appreciates great music.
And Novie i posted it stating that it was a better show than the Flames put on in the Saddledome. I figured it might get a reaction from some Flames fans. Apparently not.
Clapton > Flames

Well since this was asked by a moderator I feel free to answer.
Robert Cray opened. That in itself was worth the price of admission. The guy is phenomenal. Clapton was fantastic of course. His band was very tight.
He's got an up and coming great playing lead with him. Doyle Bramhall II. Very talented. He played a lot of newish stuff that I'm not that familiar with but also played classics like Cocaine, Wonderful Tonight, Crossroads, Layla. Played a solo Robert Johnson tune. And also covered Little Wing. Didn't play any stuff from his Cream days which was too bad. I guess it wouldn't have been the same without Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce anyway.
Yep I'll take that show in the Saddledome over watching the Flames.
