I have seen my share of concerts over the past 30+ years, including these 2 bands at the same venue. However I believe this concert was one of the best, if not THE best, I have ever wittnessed. Both bands were in top form both musically and vocally and I woke up sore the next day from dancing for 3 hours! AWESOME!!!

This show was definitely worth attending. My mom and I are fans of both bands, and we both had a great time at this concert. I've seen the Doobie Brothers in concert before, and they were just as good, if not better than the last time I saw them live. Before this concert, I had never seen Bad Company live, although I've been a fan of their music for a long time.
I'm glad that I finally got the chance to see them in concert, and I was not disappointed! I was impressed that the group still includes mostly original members, and their songs from the '70s sound just as good today. I would definitely recommend this show to others.

I thought Bad Company would be opening for the Doobie Brothers. Instead, the Doobies as awesome as they are opened for Bad Company. I was just disappointed.
It was so hot we were skipping the opening band and missed the Doobie Brothers all together. We were needless to say, totally bummed.

I was 11 yrs old when those incredible power chords of the new hit song "Feel Like Makin' Love" first blasted out of my AM radio at our summer cottage at the beach. I instantly recognized that this was a sound no one had ever been able to produce. This was pure rock and roll. This was what it was always supposed to be. It was this same enthusiasm that drove me to convince a couple of buddies to make the trek with me to "Woodstock" to hear it live this summer. I had viewed some of the videos posted on Youtube of the 2002 performances, and thought that would be pretty cool. What we witnessed blew all former performances out of the water. We see a lot of shows including new bands and old, but this show was by far and away the greatest. These guys were so on top of their game in terms of professional musicianship, enthusiasm, and crowd interaction. We were blown away. Even the old standby of recorded thunder, dry ice on stage, and a simulated lightning light show during "The Sky is Burning" proved to be beyond amazing when combined with these real pros kicking it like mad. By far and away, the best show of the year. I hope there will be many more.

I first saw Bad Company ~32 years ago. They had just released the album with Shooting Star on it and were playing that song for the first time. I'd just say that Paul Rodgers has lost nothing in his voice since those many years ago. His voice rings as strong and true as ever. I hope to see them performing again. I'd highly recommend them to anyone who likes rock n roll!

Opening act(s): Is Bad Company really the Main Act? More so than The Doobie Brothers? @

Posted 07/21/2009

by FunwithFriends

Maybe it was our bad, but we assumed Bad Company would perform first followed by The Doobie Brothers. We arrive late and couldn't understand why Bad Company was still on stage. Finally we realized (all 6 of us) that we had missed The Doobie Brothers since they were on first. How disappointing because that was what we paid to see. A costly mistake that we won't "assume" again.

Bad Company's live concert was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. They sounded great, all the songs they played were awesome, and due to the fact that the Hard Rock isn't a huge arena, artists/ groups sound even better there. I've seen Bad Company in concert twice in the past 2 years and would love to see them every year if possible. Bad Company has some of the best classic rock out there and they sound excellent live!!

the event was at Hard Rock & very expensive. with room rates and ticket prices plus missing a day of work to attend I was sorely disappointed! my fiance' went to sleep if that tells you anything. the free band outside was more intertaining than this band I've waiting my entire adult life to see(30 yrs). Not sure I'll go back to Hard Rock or not.

This wasn't the first time I've seen both of these bands in concert in the earlie 80's I've seen both bands. It brought back so many memories and good times. The music and the sound system at Bethel Woods was excellent.

I was expecting nothing spactactular for this retrospective from these two 70's era icons, but since it was my 9-year old's first concert, I figured it was a good starting point (by sheer accident, his first CD was "10 from 6").

The Doobies played a mix of their hits, and shared vocal duties between the two current frontmen, and had a few younger folks in the lineup (including two drummers, which seemed wierd) to spice thing up a bit. It was a predictable and ho-hummish set. Despite my love of the Band, the lack of Michael McDonald really made this show a 5/10 rating for me. Too many people on stage just muddied up the sound.

Quite the contrast to the Bad Company set. From the moment Paul Rodgers walked on stage, he was on fire. They stuck pretty much to their hits from the same era as the Doobies, but the sound was fresh and clean, and was brought to life by Paul's vocal subtleties and interesting chord exploration. The three other gents were from the original lineup, with exception of the Bassist who died in 2006. He was replaced for the show (much to my excitement) by Roger Fisher - one of the founding members of Heart.

Guitarist Boz Burell looked OLD, but did a good job of pulling out his fantastic bluesey style AI've always loved. Drummer Simon Kirke did a fir job of emulating his sound, with the exception of oversimplified fills. Roger was great at filling in where necessary.
The show belonged to Rogers though who has seemingly gotten better with age. He's always been one of the best vocalists in Rock, but has truely not lost any of the luster from 3 decades ago, and actually brought new life to a good portion of the set.
I appreciated the song selection too, which included some favorites not heard on the radio.

Paul Killed it!
