The Doobie Brothers Expand 50th Anniversary Tour with 35 New Dates
The Doobie Brothers are in a celebratory mood. The legendary California rock icons have extended the band's 50th anniversary tour by a whopping 35 dates. The shows--which will now last from June through October of this year--prolongs the tour that unites guitarists Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons and John McFee and singer Michael McDonald for the first time in 25 years.
The new dates include shows in Kansas City, Des Moines, Louisville, Biloxi, Charleston and Atlantic City. After wrapping the American dates, the group is expected to fly overseas for shows in Australia, Japan and Singapore.
Tickets for all the new dates will go on sale beginning this Friday (March 3) at 10 a.m. local time (with the exception of the shows in Sparks, NV; New Brunswick, NJ; Morristown, NJ; Washington, DC; and Uncasville, CT, which will go on sale beginning March 10 at 10 a.m. local time.)
“We are thrilled to be back on the road in 2023 playing some cities we haven’t gotten to yet on this tour,” said Johnston in a statement.
