Eric Clapton Reschedules This Weekend’s Concerts At The Forum

There’s disappointing news for Eric Clapton fans as Slowhand has taken ill. As such he has rescheduled a pair of concerts he was set to play at The Forum in Inglewood, California on Saturday and Sunday nights.

Clapton is battling severe bronchitis and under doctor’s advisement has moved the concerts from this weekend until September. EC’s show scheduled for Saturday, March 25 will now take place on Wednesday, September 13. The Sunday, March 26 show will now be held Monday, September 18. A note from The Forum explaining the situation reads in part, “He is very sorry to disappoint his fans but looks forward to these shows. Ticketholders can retain their tickets for the new dates or refunds will be issued at point of purchase. In addition, Clapton will play the already scheduled two shows at The Forum September 15th and 16th.”

Eric Clapton played his first gigs of the year this past Sunday and Monday nights at Madison Square Garden in New York City, where he was joined by Jimmie Vaughan and Gary Clark Jr.
