Classic Clapton - After Midnight

The World's No1 Eric Clapton Tribute Band are making a welcome return to The Phoenix Theatre in March as part of their 30th Anniversary Tour. Most of their previous visits sold out so fans are advised to book early.

The band features front-man Mike Hall who not only looks like Eric, he sings and plays guitar like him too! They were formed in 1985 in Newcastle and named themselves ''After Midnight'' after Eric Clapton's first solo hit. In the past 30 years they have become one of the best-loved bands in the north east. In 2001 they began playing further afield so they called the tribute show "Classic Clapton".

Classic Clapton comprises 4 excellent musicians who stunningly recreate Slowhand's electrifying stage performances. The show is a 2-hour journey through the music of Eric Clapton including all of his hits - Wonderful Tonight, I Shot The Sheriff, Lay Down Sally, Crossroads, Tears in Heaven, Layla and even an Unplugged segment.
