Chicago and The Doobie Brothers to Co-Headline North American Tour

​Veteran classic rockers Chicago and The Doobie Brothers have announced a co-headlining tour of North America. See the dates below.

The tour kicks off in early June in Concord, California and concludes at the Veterans United Home Loan Amphitheater in Virginia Beach in late July.

In a press release, Chicago’s Robert Lamm said that the tour is “the perfect summer lineup, playing dozens of the best-loved rockin’ pop classics.” Patrick Simmons, who plays guitar in The Doobie Brothers, added that there will be “some fun musical surprises along the way.” Fans have speculated that Simmons is hinting at the two groups performing select cuts together, as they have on previous tours.
