Wow. Whoring is an awfully strong word. Consider this. Clapton is staging another Crossroads Festival with proceeds going to the Crossroads Rehab Center. T-Mobile is sponsoring the festival. Perhaps this is a case of T-Mobile getting Clapton for their commercial and the festival getting a sponsor so there will be more money going to a non-profit charitable organization that helps people in need.

Wow, selling out to T-Mobile? i think you should have spent a few seconds googling this subject. It appears that Clapton cut a deal with t-mobile to sponsor his Crossroads Benefit concert. There have been enough stories about Benefits raising charitable funds only to see that money wasted on the benefits expenses. If Clapton gets a corporation to donate the expenses; that means the money raised goes to the charity. I don't see that as a sell out. I see that as a smart way to help people who need charitable services. But that's just me.
Let see, auction off almost all your prized possessions, i.e. 'Blackie' and other guitars and the give the money to a drug rehab center, then getting corporate sponsors to foot the bill for an all day concert with all great guitar players and having all proceeds going to that rehab facility realy sounds like whoring to me. BS. And if any should know anything about whoring and getting on knees to blow someone I would guess it's you
