Report from Hans-Werner:
The concert was outdoors and unfortunately it was raining during the whole concert. But it was worth standing in the rain for 4 hours; the music was great. The show started with Jakob Dylan. His set was terrific; he played songs from his new album “Seeing Things”.

Highlights of Eric’s set were “Hoochie Coochie Man”, “Here But I’m Gone”, “Isn’t It A Pity”, “Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad”, “Little Queen Of Spades” and “Cocaine”. On “Cocaine” he played wah-wah during the solo. There was one change in the set list compared to the previous shows: “Rock Me Baby” instead of “Driftin'”.
