[ROCK] Fans of a band usually don’t want to hear that they won’t be performing their biggest hit in concert. The Doobie Brothers are an exception: Since reforming in the early 1990s around original members Tom Johnson and Pat Simmons, the band no longer performs “What a Fool Believes” or any of the other Michael MacDonald songs that were huge hits but left longtime fans wondering what had happened to the band that originally rode the charts with riff-driven rockers like “Listen to the Music” and “Long Train Running.” Their current set-list features those and other mid-1970s hits along with a generous selection of less familiar album tracks. Doobie son Pat Simmons Jr. will open the show at Artpark on Tuesday, August 25.
