Doobie Brothers Reuniting With Michael McDonald For Tour
The Doobie Brothers have announced that they are reuniting with former singer Michael McDonald for a North American 50th anniversary tour next summer.
The special trek will feature the first time that this lineup of the band, McDonald, Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons and John McFee, have toured together in almost 25 years.
The 50th Anniversary Tour is scheduled to begin on June 9th in West Palm Beach, FL at the Coral Sky Amphitheatre and will wrap up on October 10th in Houston, TX ath The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion.
Johnston had this to say, "We're truly excited about our 50th Anniversary Tour, as it's a celebration of the band's entire history. We'll be performing songs from our full catalog, as well as new music."
McDonald recently said on NPR's Ask Me Another, "With the Doobies, everybody in the band was proud to be a Doobie Brother. And to this day, I think of myself as a Doobie Brother - all these years later." See the dates below:
