Via Variety:

If you’ve been pining for a show that combines the rocking authority of “Takin’ It to the Streets” and the poetic genius of Shakespeare, your long wait is over. The Troubadour Theater Company has long been known for its felicitous mixtures of popular music and the Bard, and its new world premiere production, “Much Adoobie Brothers About Nothing,” is an entertaining continuation of this tradition.

More info here. Hmmm. That’s either gonna be terrible or fuckin’ awesome.

What book/band combo would you like to see? Points for puns.

Newsmakers: Doobie Brothers tickets on sale; the Boss at Apollo before SXSW
Love a little Doobie Brothers? From soulful rockers "Takin' It to the Streets," "Jesus is Just Alright," and "China Grove" to sweet ballads "Take Me in Your Arms," "What a Fool Believes" and "Minute by Minute," the hits should be pouring out at ACL live on ...
Doobie Brothers: Best Band Name Ever, Awesome Enduring Tunes
Doobie Brothers is indisputably the best band name of all time. A doobie, for all of those not in the know, is a joint. It's a rolled-up bit of marijuana one will smoke to get high. Oh, and the Doobie Brothers aren't brothers, except through the doob.

    The Troubie shows are phenomenal — highly recommended. I’ve seen several — the best I’ve seen are “Hamlet: the Artist Formerly Known as Prince of Denmark” and “It’s a Stevie Wonderful Life.”

  32. Gone With The Weezer

  33. FUCK OVER IT!!!!!! THE KILLERS WILL RELEASE THE BEST…wait, I don’t give a shit what either band thinks of their next magnum opus.

  34. If you haven’t figured it out, SAOSIN WILL RELEASE SOMETHING BETTER THAN THE KILLERS OR OVER IT.
