• Aftermath: The Killers at Verizon Wireless Theater

  Photos by Torey Mundkowsky Next year this decade will be over, and very few new bands have distinguished themselves either at the turnstiles or the cash register.

• Aftermath: Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood at Toyota Center

  Photos by Daniel Kramer Two words came into Aftermath's head shortly into the show uniting these former Blind Faith bandmates and arguably two of classic rock's biggest stars: peerless musicianship. They stayed with us for the rest of the concert. While we can appreciate the bombast and big show of acts like KISS, Springsteen and even Britney, there was something much finer on display at the Toyota Center as the 64-year-old Clapton and 61-year-old Winwood simply played their instruments as exten
