Live Review: The Doobie Brothers, Pat Simmons Jr
The pure joy which emanated from the stage throughout the show made one truly feel the love for music that has clearly sustained these musicians to date. Let’s hope it continues to do so for some time yet.

Let’s hope it doesn’t take another ten years before he once again graces us with his delightful presence.
