08.26.19 | It was the last show of the tour, so The Doobies came out and joined Santana for one song, "Some Kind of Wonderful". After taking a few weeks off, Santana will be heading out to Nevada to start a residency at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bayin Las Vegas, and The Doobies will be heading out to California to start a new tour as the headliners. |

Divaman
08.26.19 | Yep. Don't know how long it's been since you've been there, but they've put a third tier on the stadium. Where I was sitting last night, it looked like there were little two-inch tall Doobie Brothers. |
Divaman
08.26.19 | There's a full setlist for the Doobies and a partial setlist for Santana up at setlist.fm. My full writeup on the show will be up in a day or two at longislandmusicguy.blogspot.com. |

08.26.19 | Saw the Doobies with Greg Allman a couple of summers back. They were good. So many Top-40 hits that I almost didn't miss Michael McDonald--almost. |

08.26.19 | I would never pay to see Santana rehearsing Supernatural. |
MrSirLordGentleman
08.26.19 | Supernatural is one of his best for me so I wouldn't mind at all |
rockandmetaljunkie
08.26.19 | Even if i could agree with you, you can't bypass that these guys have produced at least 3 albums better than supernatural |
MrSirLordGentleman
08.26.19 | Abraxas and III are on the same level as Supernatural for me tbh. The debut is slightly weaker
Incredibly unpopular opinion. I know |
Divaman
08.26.19 | I actually like the first album and Abraxis better than Supernatural. He mixed it up pretty good, though. Out of 20 songs, only four were from Supernatural. |

08.26.19 | i'm glad for you, Diva!...While Santana got lots of hits and good jams that i like (I need to be in the mood), i tend to prefer The Doobies, thanks to Rocking Down the Highway, that i own. Rock and Roll, my friend :) |

08.26.19 | You've never been a fan of latin styled music am I right jethro bro? |
Jethro42
08.26.19 | Well maybe I'm hard to please about it (especially Spanish stuff, ask me why...), but I quite dig Los Jaivas, Babe Ruth and Chick Corea among others. And what i like from Santana, i really like. But it's true, in general, that's missing from my culture...or from my taste, not sure yeah. |
MrSirLordGentleman
08.26.19 | Haven't checked Babe Ruth o:
are they cool? |
Jethro42
08.26.19 | I'm only familiar with album First Base, and it's their magnum opus. They can be heavy or funky in places with bluesy guitar and sexy bass. The - female - singer has powerful vocals They know how to prog for First Base. Listen to ''The Mexican''. You probably know it already. Btw I also like both Carmen and Triana very much, especially the former. |
Jethro42
08.26.19 | Also i think you dig Wishbone Ash, so you will appreciate First Base. |
Divaman
08.26.19 | My friend who saw the concert with me preferred the Doobies. But I love Santana, and especially the songs with more of a Latin beat. |

08.26.19 | Sound very promising jethro, I'll add them to my list! |
