Dokken (Official Thread)

Re: Dokken...The Band Thread

I have some running around I have to do today, I'll stop by one of the Best Buys near us. I doubt they'll have it. Their music and music DVD selection is so crummy compared to what it was years ago. Especially for hard rock and 80's rock more specifically. I went there a few weeks ago to just browse around and maybe replace some of my missing/lost/stolen discs. The Black Sabbath section had like 3 titles. Ozzy maybe had 4. Kiss had a slew of the Millenium collection discs and hardly anything else.

But, I'll look anyway.

...or Amazon....cheap prices. They have some new ones through selected vendors for as low as 5.99. Not bad since amazon price is 13.49

Yeah I looked at that and the Halford Live in Rio DVD. Getting both and it's free shipping, so maybe i'll go that route.

Here's a great store I have done business with for over 4 years now. Much deeper catalog than BB.

Cool, thanks LG. Are those new CDs or used?

Re: Dokken...The Band Thread

Brand spanking new Lynch...and they will look everywhere to find them if you ask them too. I have got some absolute gems over the years that I would never have found without their help.

I just got a notice shipping is 1/2 price right now as well...you have to spend $50.00 or something though...still a great shop.

I saw Dokken and Ratt over the summer. Dokken is still really good. Ratt was pretty good, but Dokken sounded perfect. I love Dokken and early Ratt.

Re: Dokken...The Band Thread

DOKKEN is one of my fav 80s bands for sure! Have a chance to see them (per se) Saturday at Pickled Park by Minneapolis. But now with Jeff and George not in .... how do they sound? Pat.. you said you were buds with Jon Levin... so has he been playing with them since '96? And who are the members now? I just want to make sure if I go, I am not disappointed by what I remember from my youth!
