The Doobie Brothers and Jimmy Buffett's band line up outdoor gig in Minnesota
This go-round, it'll do with the help of The Doobie Brothers. The casino announced this week that it'll bring the classic rock act to Prior Lake with Jimmy Buffett's Coral Reefer Band for an outdoor show at the Mystic Amphitheater on Sept. 7.
The Doobie Brothers, best known for songs like "Black Water" and "What a Fool Believes" from early in its more than half-century career, are still out there.
More impressively, decades after the release of its self-titled 1971 debut, the group still features founding members Tom Johnston and Patrick Simmons. (Though, Johnston left the group in 1977 before rejoining a decade later.)
They're joined by The Coral Reefer Band, which served as a backhand for the late "Margaritaville" singer starting in the '70s.
Tickets for the show start at $49 through the Mystic Lake box office or $58.10 through Ticketmaster. They'll go on sale on March 21 at 10 a.m.

Doobie Brothers Rocker, 76, Gives Fans Exclusive Glimpse Backstage on Tour
Doobie Brothers Rocker, 76, Gives Fans Exclusive Glimpse Backstage on Tour originally appeared on Parade. The iconic 70s rock band The Doobie Brothers are currently on tour — and founding guitarist Patrick Simmons gave fans an exclusive glimpse backstage at their latest stop, the Co-Op Live in Manchester, England. The band played the venue on July 15, and that day, they took to their Instagram stories to share a video of Simmons, 76, walking around backstage before posing with a drawn version of himself featured on a poster for this particular show on the band's current tour, titled the 'Walk the Road' tour. In the video, Simmons — who plays guitar and banjo, as well as providing vocals, for the group — can be seen smiling and making silly faces as he poses for what appears to be some photos. He even took his round glasses off for some shots to better match his drawn counterpart, who features on the poster without spectacles like Simmons sometimes wears. The Doobie Brothers are currently on tour in Europe, traversing the United Kingdom and Ireland for another week before bringing the tour back home stateside for August and most of September. Their next gig will take place in Birmingham, England at the PB Pulse Live Arena on July 17 and their last scheduled date on their website is at the Budweiser Stage in Toronto, Canada on September 18. The band was formed in San Jose, California in 1970 with an original lineup of Tom Johnston, Patrick Simmons, John Hartman, and Dave Shogren. In 1975, Michael McDonald joined the group to sub in for Johnston while he was dealing with health issues — but McDonald, 73, ended up being a key component who would stick with the band until 1982. He returned to the band in 2019 and is playing on the tour alongside Simmons, Johnston, 76, and John McFee. The band released their latest album, Walk the Road, early last month. Doobie Brothers Rocker, 76, Gives Fans Exclusive Glimpse Backstage on Tour first appeared on Parade on Jul 15, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 15, 2025, where it first appeared.
