Doobies Rock in any weather, even during a steady rain that started midway of an outdoor show at the Pocono Downs Horse Track, as part of the Mohegan Sun Casino's Hot Fun in the Summer Concert Series.
The evening started off to cloudy skies. The Doobies powered through their first five songs in typical fashion to an exuberant crowd of fans. As they started to play their four new songs from their new album, the rain began to fall.
Many in the front areas left for cover, but the rest of us got up, moved closer to the stage and ROCKED out to a fantastic performance. The crowd was up and cheering during these new songs, and when is was time for the hits, the crowd was drenched, yet has so much energy, the fans were louder than most indoor shows.
The wet t-shirt crowd sang along in unison to Black Water, Long Train Running, China Grove, and Listen to the Music. While the band stayed mostly dry, they soaked up the energy from a very wet crowd, and laughed and thanked all of the fans for sticking with the during this rain storm, which slowed down to almost a complete stop by encore time
.
DOOBIES ROCK, even in the rain, one of the best Doobies concert I have experienced, especially getting to the front of the stage and sharing the love, and getting a drumstick.
