I went to see the Doobies back in '75 or so. Couldn't wait for them
to take the stage. We were right in front pounding the stage when out
walks the dude with a beard who sat behind a piano and sang all the
songs. We were like "WTF"?!?! Where's the cat that sang Long Train
Running and all the good stufff?!?!? Damn, what a disapointment.
They had just replaced him with the crooner!
