Some of you may recall that George started a band called "Lynch Mob" since the 90s. He said he was going to retire the name in 2020 due the connotations that some people perceive or read into it, but then later changed his mind.

Dokken? WTF is this, 1982?

I frequently see ramshackle Dokken cassettes in the dollar bin at my local Goodwill. Usually they are there for a few weeks before some bewigged, 80s hair metal maven lifts them- or they are just thrown out.
