The reviews are starting to come in from the Blind Faith reunion concert at Madison Square Garden, and it looks like Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood aren’t mailing it in. For those who dig spoilers check out USA Today’s notes from the gig. Clapton and Winwood return to the stage tonight to continue the fun.

Man, this is a dream come true for some, and I honestly don’t even care if they sucked. Just to see these two rock Pearly Queen would be quite a treat. Would love to see some Empty Pages.
Ace, we are going tonight – you going? I totally agree with you.FlUFF
I’m keeping my eyes open for a ticket. Seems like an incredible setlist
One of the rare times I wish i lived in NYC…
I’ve been pulling tickets off TM all day today/yesterday. Seems the only things available are on the floor ($275) or 400 level ($75) – hopefully see you guys tomorrow night, dreaming of a Low Spark…
I caught the Monday night show and it was excellent. Winwood especially blew me away. He held his own against Clapton all night. Check out my review at The Weight:

First rate show on Monday. The closing Little Wing, Voodoo Child, Can’t Find My Way Home, Mr. Fantasy was amazing. The whole show was great though. Double Trouble, Tell The Truth, Pearly Queen, Stevie’s solo “Georgia on my Mind” w/organ, were all highlights for me. Truly one of the best shows I have ever seen. MSG is the best big venue ever. One wish: Sea of Joy, off the Blind Faith album. Killer tune. We got 4/6 though.
Clapton also quasi-announced a bigger tour in the works.
