Eric Clapton’s fourth “Crossroads Guitar Festival” is a charity concert which brings some of the world’s most legendary guitarists and musicians together over the course of  2 nights, 10 hours, and one stage.  Since its inception, Clapton’s vision for the Crossroads Guitar Festival has been to create an event where his friends and contemporaries can have fun and perform together for the benefit of a good cause. All proceeds from the Festival benefit “Crossroads Center”,  an international treatment center, located on the Caribbean island of Antigua, that helps those with chemical dependency. It was founded by Eric Clapton, who has also battled and overcome alcoholism in his own life.

So if you like the sounds of Booker T. and the M.G.’s, “Green Onions”,   and “Born Under a Bad Sign”,  B.B. King’s, “Let the Good Times Roll”,  Keith Urban and John Mayer singing “The Beatles” classic,  “Don’t Let Me Down”, underrated legend -in-the making, Doyle Bramhall II’s,  “Green Light Girl”, Buddy Guy’s, “Don’t Let That Doorknob Hit You”,  Dan Aykroyd and Keb Mo paying tribute to Muddy Waters’ what would-have been 100th birthday this past April 4, 2013, Eric Clapton singing “Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?”, and The Allman Brothers Band and Taj Mahal singing “Statesboro Blues” and “Whipping Post”, then check out this event. More music greats again at MSG 4/13.
