When my wife and I got ticket for Cream at MSG, we were psyched, to say the least. After arriving by train and dinning in the bowels of the Garden, we went up to the arena. Seeing the merchandise I elected to get $ of the commemorative posters that were limited edition (I still have three). Then we took our seats for what was to be one of the best shows we had seen in the last 6 years. Ginger Baker has not lost a bit of skill, in fact, he was in tip top shape and even still took a solo on "Toad" that was over 7 minutes and did not even break a sweat. Jack Bruce was the "MAN" on the bass, even though he had to sit on a stool on occasion. And lastly, What else needs to be said of "Slow Hand". Not being confined to his solo work, Eric Clapton was sheer fluidity on the guitar.
