I love the Doobie Brothers!

The Doobie Brothers have produced some of classic rock’s most memorable hits. From the polished yacht rock sound of “What a Fool Believes” — a No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and ranked by Rolling Stone Australia as one of the greatest songs ever — to the feel-good harmonies of “Listen to the Music,” The Doobie Brothers’ more than five-decade run has made them one of the preeminent live bands to see. Since their debut album in 1971, The Doobie Brothers have won two Grammy Awards, landed eight albums in the Top 10 on the Billboard 200, been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and sold nearly 50 million albums worldwide. The band has showcased their 14 gold-album repertoire on a globetrotting 50th anniversary tour that began in 2021 with the reunited lineup of Pat Simmons, Tom Johnston, Michael McDonald and John McFee playing together for the first time in nearly 25 years.

What a great show 2 hours of awesome music 10 star dhow!!!
Saw them in the 70’s and they put on a great show then. They haven’t lost a thing! It was a wonderful 2+ hours of all their best songs. Well done Doobie Brothers!
50 years later and they’re still knocking it out of the park. 2+ hours of playing hard - no BS - just listen to the music. Had higher hopes for the sound as it was a smaller venue than Rogers or BC Place but I couldn’t get past the boomy bass. The rest got better as the evening went on. Sounds like they skipped on the sound check.
great amazing awesome fantastic wonderful 👍 The best band ever
The Doobie Brothers never disappoint. It was an awesome rockin concert.
Great evening of hits from the fellows! They're still kicking and sound great!
Great concert, band was awesome 😎 only issue is the parking and getting a spot. Traffic jammed up on the way into Abbotsford Arena. As a result we were late. So arrive early as the band started on time. Missed the opening few songs 😒
The Doobie Brothers are one of those bands that sounds good no matter what the year is! Amazing show, Michael McDonald is a god.
they sounded great. i love that they didn't have an opening band as it was during the week and i still had to drive home 3 hours. i would highly recommend seeing them.
The gig was great, the band was tight and are amazing performers . But the pa and or mix sucked. We were dead center on row 11 on the floor and there was no fill. Couldn’t hear the vocals at all. The line array didn’t fill the front rows. Very disappointing
The concert was lacking a bit. The stage set up with the lights and backdrop were not easily seen from the first balcony. Their song selection was really lacking for the first half of the concert. It felt like they had saved all the good songs just for the end. I enjoyed seeing them, I just felt like it was half a show. And I also understand that one of the lead singers was not able to perform due to injury, which was sad.
It started off a bit slow but then morphed into what we expected and wanted. No special effects or costumes just good old music
The Doobie Brothers were a slick, well-oiled machine that pumped out a solid set of tunes. All members were in fine form and voices were in tune and sounded good. Tom Johnston was not there, but the other members picked up the slack and delivered a fun night.
Classic Hit Songs Rock and Roll.Classic. Cover band Songs including Glen Campbell. Closure Increbile Encore - "Steely Dan 18 Minutes Cover Song Drum Solo
Such a tremendous evening of music and history. Just awesome. Harmonies were perfect, instruments, vocals, all just marvellous!
Loved this concert! They played all their big hits, plus a number of others including new ones from their new record. Brought me back to my youth and made me feel like a teenager again. It was a blast and very enjoyable!
Been wanting to see these guys for a long time so naturally i bought tickets when they came to Abbotsford. Spent hours looking at YouTube videos prior to the concert. Day of the concert, i learned that Tom Johnson was not playing with the band, big letdown! None the less, was still excited to go. These guys still rocked the place even though Tom wasn’t there but there was definitely something missing on stage. Great music great songs but i feel they missed a great opportunity to finish the concert on a high point with their closing song selection. Still one of my favorite groups.
Too much new music and not enough of the Dobbie Brothers old tunes. That's what I went for.
We went to our seats and someone was sitting in them. We told the usher this, she told us we were wrong, and sent us wandering around for 1/2 hour. So we miss the first part of the concert. The sage was too far away to see the band. A large screen on the stage could have been of assistance, had they put a camera on the artist’s, and projected it on the screen. The sound man was over driving the sound, and it became fuzzy, as the concert went on. Don’t think we will ever attend a concert at the Saddle Dome again. We believe the seats we chose, were high priced for the distance from the stage.
