Fans who came out for a great night of music weren’t the only ones smiling Saturday night when surprise guest Vince Gill appeared onstage at the Eric Clapton concert at Nashville’s Sommet Center. Both gentlemen guitarists traded licks and plenty of grins during the show’s acoustic set. Clapton introduced his “very good friend, Mr. Vince Gill!” to the stage to play on four songs including the Bessie Smith blues standard “Nobody Knows You When You’re Down and Out,” as well as his own “Running on Faith” and the 80’s hit, “I’ve Got a Rock and Roll Heart.” Clapton generously gave Gill plenty of solo time on all of these songs, including the 1992 monster hit acoustic version of “Layla,” to Gill, who gracefully stepped up to the task of playing with his guitar hero and la id out perfectly executed leads that pleased both the crowd and his host, who signaled his approval with nods and wide smiles.

The invitation to play at Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival in Chicago on June 26 might not have been a total surprise for Vince Gill, yet it is not one he takes lightly. Vince remembers the first time he was invited to participate, at the inaugural event, held at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas in June 2004. He says he'd been in a bit of a rut in his creative realm, and that phone call gave him renewed energy to write songs and record his Grammy-winning four-CD set, 'These Days.'

"At the time, I was questioning what I was doing and why things weren't connecting like they had at one point in my career," Vince recalls. "Then I got this call from Eric Clapton, who said, 'I'm only inviting people whose playing I admire and who I like.'
