A few days later I saw Yngwie Malmsteen and Talas with Billy Sheehan at the same venue.

What does that mean?

It means despite being a drug addled alcoholic racist baby killer, Eric did a good by not being as terrible as someone else.

Yeah, but Clapton wasn't playing well and Page...I doubt if he really knew he was on stage.

I don't know where I'm at half the time either.

lol

I've seen those before. I just don't pay attention to a lot of the live Page/Clapton stuff. Jeff Beck otoh is another story. I've seen him live a few times and each time was better than the last. He's a much truer to the art kind of musician. Watch any of his live concerts. He's a well oiled machine. Pun intended.
