Eric Clapton going deaf

/ 12:03 AM January 15, 2018

Iconic rock musician Eric Clapton has revealed that he was “going deaf” after being diagnosed with tinnitus.

“[What] I’m concerned with now is being in my 70s and [staying] proficient. I mean, I’m going deaf, I have got tinnitus, my hands [are] just about work,” the singer-songwriter, who has just released his documentary, “Eric Clapton: Life in 12 Bars,” said in an interview with BBC Radio 2.

At 72, Eric still goes to work and plays gigs. “I mean, I’m hoping that people will come and see me for more than that; [because] I’m a curiosity,” he said. “I know that is part of it, because it’s amazing to myself that I’m still here.”—ALLAN POLICARPIO
