"At the time of this recording, President Trump has paused the Tariffs but for China. Even so, the tariffs will have a marked effect on the cost of almost everything dealing with music including instruments to records to touring to streaming."

"Tool was just roundly booed off the stage at their own festival. Seems they promised two separate sets over two night and did not deliver. But it is not just them. You will not believe some other bands who were booed off stage as well."

Dokken was formed in the late 1970s by vocalist Don Dokken. The band came into its own in the early ‘80s with the classic lineup of Don on vocals, George Lynch on guitar, Jeff Pilson on bass, and Mick Brown on drums. Their debut album, Breaking the Chains, released in 1981, didn't gain immediate traction but laid the foundation for what would become one of the more recognized names in melodic metal.The breakthrough came with Tooth and Nail in 1984, followed by Under Lock and Key and Back for the Attack. These albums produced a number of hits—songs like “Into the Fire,” “Just Got Lucky,” and “Alone Again”—which earned the band regular MTV rotation and a growing international fanbase. Don Dokken's vocals blended melody with grit, while George Lynch brought a technically aggressive and distinctive guitar style that played a major role in shaping their sound.By 1987, the band was touring with acts like Aerosmith and AC/DC and headlining their own arena shows. They also contributed the track “Dream Warriors” to the Nightmare on Elm Street 3 soundtrack, which gave them additional mainstream exposure.But with success came internal strain. The tension between Don Dokken and George Lynch was well-known and often spilled over into the band's creative process. The two had what could be described as a musical cold war, and while that friction helped define their sound, it also led to the band's breakup in 1989.Over the decades that followed, the band went through multiple lineup changes. Don remained the frontman and creative anchor. Since the early 2000s, guitarist Jon Levin has held the guitar spot, earning respect from fans for honoring the original material while also bringing his own energy to the band.In 2023, Dokken released a new album, Heaven Comes Down. The album stayed true to the band's identity while incorporating more modern production elements. The songwriting remained melodic and direct, and it was generally well-received by long-time listeners. Notably, three songs recorded during those sessions didn't make the final tracklist. Don has mentioned the possibility of releasing those as part of a future EP.There has also been increasing interest in the reconnection between Don and George Lynch. Though there's no formal reunion, George has appeared onstage with Don several times in recent years. The chemistry appears to be intact, and the two have expressed mutual respect in recent interviews. Whether this leads to a new song, a studio collaboration, or something more remains to be seen.Dokken continues to tour and record, and despite the changes and challenges over the years, the band remains active. Whether you've been following them since the ‘80s or just discovering them now, Dokken's music still resonates—and their story is still being written.

"The LA Wildfires have devastated multiple communities. The number of not only musicians but producers and orchestras and studios and engineers affected is vast.

"If you use Spotify then you know it gives you a year end rundown of the songs you most listened to. It is called Spotify Wrapped and it is more than just a nice way of saying you are being tracked. It is a successful marketing ploy."
