Eric Clapton will complete the European leg of his world tour with a historic show in Red Square, Moscow on August 3, 2006. The Russian date wraps up the tour which begins May 5 in France and will travel through 14 countries.
This will be the first time Clapton has performed in Red Square, following in the footsteps of major artists such as Paul McCartney, Placido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti who have all performed in the famed location, in addition to last year’s historic Live 8 concert.
