The Doobie Brothers have just added whopping 34 new dates to the its 50th anniversary tour. The band features co-founders Tom Johnston and Patrick Simmons — along with returning member Michael McDonald. The new North American dates begin on June 9th in Sparks, Nevada at Nugget Event Center and, as of now, wrap up on October 6th at Uncasville, Connecticut's Mohegan Sun Arena.
Michael McDonald, who along with the Doobies, was finally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2020, told us he might be the most excited of his bandmates to once again hit the road: “It seemed like the 50th anniversary was probably the most opportune time for me to, kind of, come back and tour with the band — y'know, which I'm really, really looking forward to. For me it's always been a real source of pride to be a member of the Doobies.”
The Doobie Brothers kick off their 2023 dates on March 29th in Singapore, Singapore at the Star Theatre.
