Last night as "Professor Phil Moore, Jr." I DJ'd in the Poster Room Lounge at the world famous Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, for the first of 2 nights with the Doobie Brothers.
To say that these were highly anticipated performances is an understatement because I grew up in San Francisco during the Doobie Brothers hey day in the 1970's when they were riding high on the radio with hits like "Nobody", "Listen to the Music", "Long Train Runnin'", "China Grove", and "Black Water"
After spinning 16 songs (all on vinyl!)in 2 sets drawn from that epochal music period from 1971 to 1981, my co-worker Erin and I rocked out to the timeless tunes that the Doobs played with complete reverence and joy.
I renewed my rock and roll vows yet again last night.
It was so great to see and hear original members Tom Johnston & Pat Simmons playing the songs that made them famous for 39 years now.
I've included some photos that I took of last night's show at the Fillmore.
