Went to Arran for Friday's show. OUTSTANDING. I would say about 250 in the hall, but you felt that it was very intimate. He played a great selection of old and new. I can't remember the name of the song he was going to sing, but he was dedicating it to his mother in law Freda who sadly had died two days previously. He got the first verse out then had to stop as he got so caught up in the emotion. Don't think there were many dry eyes at that point. He apologised saying that it wasn't very professional-but I can assure you no one was complaining. He is also a great storyteller, the partnership that he has with John Munro is incredible.What a guitar player!
Eric was very approachable, we even got him to record a special message to our 11 year old son who thinks he is fantastic, to try and make up for not taking him with us.
But I have to say that my highlight of the evening was watching our friend's mum and dad who had heard him about 30 years ago and never thought they would see him live sit holding hands while he gave a beautiful rendition of No Man's Land.
Superb
