WHILE rock star Eric Clapton prepares for his first British gigs in four years in February, the North-East's own version of the legendary guitarist will be performing 22 gigs across the country from January to June.
Durham-born Clapton sound and look-alike Mike Hall has been a popular attraction on the North-East music scene for several years.
Now, after appearing in a Tyne Tees TV documentary about tribute bands, he is spreading his wings beyond the region.
Mike, 48, will be performing for Clapton fans when Where's Eric, the fanzine dedicated to the guitarist, holds its convention in London on Saturday, February 3.
Mike is due to play the Billingham Forum Theatre on Sunday, February 11. For details call the venue on (01642) 552663
