Doobie Brothers

"Black Water" is such a happy song. Wouldn't mind catching them live.

Does anyone know if they are touring anymore?

(and thanks suz....caught it before it went flying away)

Oh the Doobies, they were fantastic. I just watched a special on TV about them, I had no idea how much in fighting was going on.

@Pandalady Are you east of the Mississippi? I would love to expose my daughter to their music, I think she would love it.

Did you just google tour dates?

@SunSprite no I have not and I'm not interested in seeing them now that they are old.

@blackhole99 awww....hate to hear that.....I've seen a lot of "older" artists, and not sorry I did.

The BeeGees remains a favorite, and that was after they lost Andy (yes I realize he wasn't a part of the BeeGees). I did get to see Andy Gibb at Carowinds when I was like 10 years old...still have the photos from my very old outdated camera

Rick Springfield puts on a good concert still. Tom Petty did, and I hate we lost him. Biggest regrets on missing out on are David Bowie and original Lynyrd Skynyrd....I did see Rossington Collins.

When I was super young, I won tickets to INXS kick off concert in the U.S. it was held at the Charleston SC Guilliard audotorium and I had second row seats. Good Lord, was there ever a hotter man than Michael Hutchence? soooooooooooo sublime

@SunSprite I live in Georgia. I just literally put in Doobie Brothers events in Google and they came up! Would post it here but I am not sure it would come up without outisde links that are against guidelines. They'll be here in June. I will be out of school so I could do a Sunday night. Again, hmmm???

I loved Doobie Brothers when I was a child growing up in the 70's and then as a teenager in the 80's. Kept liking Michael McDonald when he went solo, as well.

@Pandalady June 19th in Charlotte looks like our ticket.

My daughter is close to Charlotte and I'll just head up that way and stay with her. Of course I will spring for the tickets, but that's ok. I need to expand her cultural awareness lolol.

There is something about their music that resonates with me on so many levels. I grew up in SC, and my parents all hail from from rural midlands and upstate. We drive over "Black River" when visiting our farm land, many times a year.

"Black Water" may be about New Orleans, but it strikes a chord with many of us that grew up in a simple, rural time.

Can't wait for the concert! Thanks for sharing

I am seeing them in Indy in July. I cannot wait. Have wanted to see them for years. So glad Michael McDonald is touring with them.

They'll be here in July. They are touring the whole country for their 50th anniversary so you should be able to find them someplace.
