[Slowhand] Slowhand Digest, Vol 11, Issue 22 - Eric Clapton is honorary Aussie

[Hubert Orbons]

Hi folks,

This is a misprint.   The performer is Richard Clapton, no relation.    
He is a well known singer, song writer, guitarist who was very 
successful in the 70's.     He still tours, or does one off shows like 
this from time to time.

I recall this type of thing happening in the past, makes you wonder if 
it is accidental or not.

I will start the Australia Day weekend with my brother and nephew by 
watching iconic Sydney blues/rock band Bondi Cigars 
(www.bondi.cigars.com.au) at my favourite live venue, The Gov 
(www.thegov.com.au).   The local support act is also very good -

Cheers all and come on Aussies to beat India in the cricket !

Hubert
