Eric Clapton may have played the blues last night, but probably not to mourn the demise of the Tweeter Center. The guitar legend headlined the first concert at the Mansfield amphitheater under its new name, Comcast Center.
The center was known as the Great Woods Center for Performing Arts when it opened in 1986, and renamed the Tweeter Center in 1999.
