    He looked a little like Rod Stewart to me. He was on cruches and sat down through the whole set. a back injury...someone said due to that fire that went down.
    I looked up his youtube and he sound nothing like he did.

    He wasn't injured in the fire.

    I saw Dokken about 7 years ago and they were pretty fucking good.

    Saw Great White HEADLINE the coliseum on Independence with Tesla and Badlands back in the day. Tesla was great. Badlands was beyond great. Great White was average at best.

    don dokken produced Great White's first album. I saw Great White open for judas priest in '84. Wasn't that impressed. they got worse with age. just another 80s hair band.

    Back in the day I preferred Dokken since I was a guitar guy and George Lynch was amazing. Was he with Dokken at the Festival?

    Didn't realize Beach replaced Lynch. I remember Beach with Winger but evidently he played for Alice Cooper and Whitesnake as well. Damn good guitar player.

    I wouldn't know if he was...i have no idea who he is. The lead singer was pretty old and man does he hate Lady Gaga! He talked more than he sang and they had equipment failure in the beginning and cut their set 30 minutes.
