Dr. Mike Daley Presents: The Doobie Brothers Story

With hits like "Listen To The Music," "What A Fool Believes" and "China Grove," the Doobie Brothers are one of the most beloved rock groups of all time. Dr. Mike Daley Presents: The Doobie Brothers Story is an entertaining lecture-concert celebrating their career and music, featuring Mike on guitar and vocals, Mike Ferfolia on bass and vocals, Adam Warner on drums and vocals, Greg Wyard on guitar and vocals and Jill Daley on piano and violin.

You'll learn about the band's formation in 1970s California, its rise to fame and the changes that led to original lead vocalist Tom Johnston's eventual replacement by gruff-voiced Michael McDonald, which took them to their greatest heights of success. The band broke up just before their biggest hit, then reformed and continue to this day. The latest in a monthly series that has included sold-out lecture-concerts on David Bowie, Billy Joel, Gordon Lightfoot, Tina Turner and the Beach Boys, Dr. Mike Daley Presents: The Doobie Brothers Story is a must-see for any music fan.
