How horrendously, hilariously embarassing.... The Queen asked Eric Clapton at a reception at Buck House how long he'd been playing. "Oh, about 45 years," he replied.
Her Majesty doesn't know who Eric Clapton is?!......
Incredible.
From The Times Online:
The Queen welcomed some of the biggest names in British music to Buckingham Palace last night but had no idea who some of them were.
Introduced to four famous guitar heroes, she asked: “And what do you do?” ......
....Eric Clapton took no chances and introduced himself by name. “Have you been playing a long time?” the Queen asked. “It must be 45 years now,” replied Clapton.
