    Dokken is the lead singer's last name, Don Dokken. One of the lesser known so called hair band but Don's unique voice and George Lynch's excellent guitar skills definitely stand out among their peers and George is still wildly active these days. One of the best rock/metal guitarists of his or any other era.

They weren't a small time band though. They got picked up by Van Halen to be in their Monsters of Rock stadium tour along with Metallica and Scorpions. (it was a great concert) They even did a theme songs for Freddy Krueger's - Nightmare on Elm Street 3. - If you liked Dokken, you should also try Ratt & Tesla.

    Mick is a great drummer, Jeff an absolutely awesome bass player, George Lynch is one of the best guitar players ever, and Don Dokken was one of the best vocalists of the 80s. He can't now hit the notes in quite the same way but he was awesome in his time. They just had the misfortune of getting lumped in with a ton of other bands that came out at the same time and were tragically overlooked by a lot of people. It also hurt that Don and George could never get along.

The MTV video leaves out where the ex-girlfriend calls Dokken to try and get him back and he almost gives in but then comes to his senses and sings "It's not LOVE!" Your next Dokken song like so many below have already suggested should be "In My DREAMS" Anyways, good reaction. Keep them coming.

    One thing you may not have noticed, they have straps holding all the gear down to the trailer to keep it from rocking and sliding off when the truck makes turns or stops. you can see them pretty good if you look at the wedges (monitors) the band is using to hear themselves.

  • @stevenf7683
    @stevenf7683 2 года назад +1

    I grew up in the 80s and was a huge Dokken fan. I used to watch this video all the time. What is funny though is that I never noticed Dokken's reaction to his drummer fumbling the drumstick at the 1:52 mark in the Dokken video - 4:48 in this one. A lot of my friends that were Dokken fans never noticed it until I pointed it out. :)
    As for the comment that they were not playing while going, I was in LA when they filmed the video. They did play as they filmed this - it was sort of like U2 when they filmed that video on the roof of the record studio. They had the police shut down the filming because the crowd was so hard to control.
    Back then, laws were VERY different and had more lax enforcement. The semi would do the turns VERY slowly so inertia wasn't that much. Most of the route that they took was straight though.

  • @crimsonskies1445

    I've been following Dokken since they began and their catalog is impressive and George Lynch the guitarist is one of the GOAT's for sure. The whole band is top notch. Although considered part of the 80's hair metal scene, Dokken had bigger things on their mind than Aqua-net.:)

    Hey Rob Squad fam, first my wife and I want to let you know that we love your channel and enjoy watching your reactions on the weekend while relaxing from our busy week, Congrats on your amazing family and your new addition Luca ! My wife introduced me to the Michael Stanley Band several yrs ago and I think you would love their music. Their lead singer and namesake, Michael Stanley recently passed but this band never got the recognition they so deserved. Here are a few of their songs that I recommend a reaction to, trust me, you will love the 80's vibe and Saxophone. "Lover", "Rosewood Bitters" , " Our Town" , "Someone Like You" and "He Can't Love You" :)

    I used to pasture surf on the back of a flatbed. The stable I worked at had horses in a pasture close to the main complex - The owner would drive the flatbed and I would bust open bales of hay and throw it over for the horses, drop buckets of grain in feeders while moving. It takes practice. You have to keep your knees unlocked like if you are on a trampoline and wanting to stop. It isn't playing a guitar, but it also isn't a smooth street and standing still.
    80's headbangers appreciate Dokken.

    You don't know how happy I am right now. First songs, Breakin' the Chains, great song very silly video. Into the Fire, Just Got Lucky and In My Dreams where they play in the rain.
    Now this video. I was living in California when this was filmed. Those two radio stations you see their logos were the biggest hard rock/metal stations around. The call went out on the radio that Dokken was doing something crazy and to come out to the Sunset strip in Hollywood if you wanted to be part of it. They are actually playing but not the same song and they are being driven but in short segments where the road is mostly closed off. Some of their friends in other bands got to be in the video too. I was in the Marines at the time and about 80 miles away and had no car, unfortunely. Missed out on some history there.
    I loved Dokken back in the 80s and they were quite popular. If you took the thrash analogy of a big 4 of hair metal it would be Motley Crue, Ratt, Dokken and W.A.S.P. they were the bands that kind of hit at the right time between 80 and 82. All of these bands were harder on their first couple of albums. Motley Crue kind of issued in the glam look by everybody with the huge success of Theater of Pain. Then they dropped it on the next album but the damage was done. Little known fact for most people not really into this music. The 80s was starting in the 70s and then Punk happened. Most of the early bands that were popular in the 80s were playing the clubs and building a reputation and then suddenly no one would take their calls. They had to wait it out and reinvent themselves, mostly, to find popularity. Don Dokken trying to get this band started is quite a interesting story.

    Back when I was a roadie, I work to show in South America. It was Night Ranger and Dokken. The day after the show, we all met in the lobby of the hotel and headed to the airport. I asked Don this very question. And he told me, the only real thing where the drums. The guitar cabinets and amplifier heads were all empty. They were secured together and secured to the trailer bed. And with some well thought out camera work, you never see any of the anchors. So whenever they went around corners, nothing would move. 😎☮️
