    There was a time when a guitar hero was not just a video game


    Eric Clapton will return for his second Crossroads Guitar Festival on July 28th at the Toyota Park in Chicago. The bill features representatives of yore such as Buddy Guy, Jeff Beck, B.B. King, and Willie Nelson, while Slow Hand has also recruited some younger axe wielders like John Mayer and Robert Randolph.

    Proceeds from the concert will go towards the Crossroads Centre, a rehabilitation facility in Antigua, an island in the Carribbean.
