The Fabulous Armadillos and Collective Unconscious, the same group that sold out both performances of their much talked about Eagles tribute, are uniting once again to bring you the unique vocals, soul and power of the Doobie Brothers in “Takin It To The Streets: A Doobie Brothers Tribute.” 

The audience will hear hits like “Black Water,” “Minute By Minute,” “What A Fool Believes,” “Takin It To The Streets,” and many more. The Doobie Brothers continue to make music, releasing “World Gone Crazy,” in 2010.

The band started playing around northern California in 1970, and quickly became a favorite of local Hells Angels chapters. Over the next five years, they often performed at a favorite biker venue, the Chateau Liberté in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

Their second album, “Toulouse Street,” included hits, “Listen to the Music,” and “Jesus Is Just Alright,” and brought the band their breakthrough success after its release in July 1972.

Crossings concert-goers know “The Dillos” and Collective Unconscious from their collaborative tribute to The Eagles, as well as concerts each band has performed on their own. The Fabulous Armadillos put on a wildly successful Motown show, while CU has brought “album concerts” featuring the music of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, The Beach Boys, Simon & Garfunkel, and The Beatles.

Seeing these bands in the vintage 270-seat State Theatre, surrounded by enthusiastic fans, is an experience music-lovers won’t soon forget. Concert-goers should plan on getting up out of their seats to dance through the concert, and for the ovations at the end of the show!

The State Theatre is located at 96 East 4th Street in Zumbrota. For more information call 507-732-5210.
