Come rock out with the Craig Thatcher Band as they present their Eric Clapton Retrospective on Saturday, March 1, 2014 at 7:00 PM in the Brook (Theater) Arts Center located at 10 Hamilton Street in Bound Brook,

The show traces the musical career of Eric Clapton beginning with the
Yardbirds and follows him onward through decades of classic rock. It has been
very well received, with sold-out crowds at several venues. Since 2005 the
Craig Thatcher Band has performed this exceptional tribute throughout
Pennsylvania and New Jersey—including Easton's State Theatre, the Sellersville
Theatre, the Mauch Chunk Opera House in Jim Thorpe, and the House of Blues in
Atlantic City.
The advance ticket
price is $30.00 ($35 at the door). Tickets can be
purchased on-line through the Brook Arts Center at www.brookarts.org.
