[Slowhand] Only a hobby?????????

[M.Prehn at t-online.de]

It sounds so curious to me that Clapton-"fans" and such Clapton experts as we have at this list think that making music is just a hobby. What do you mean by that?
I have a hobby too and I practise it as if my life depends on it. And sorry, but that is what I expect from others too. 

And I have to say another thing: I went to a David Bowie concert a few days ago and it was the first time for years that an artist really got me! This man is 56 years old. So why in the world can't Eric perform with such energie anymore? I never thought that I would ever say this, but : Eric is BORING!!!!!!!!!! Sniff! 

A big hug to ya'all.  Mike
