[@rockingguitarlessons]

Don it's cool of you to do this for your fans. Letting them in on your world is refreshing. I have alot of those boxes of the early days tapes too. Haha. For me it's like 84-88. May have to find them in the studio abyss. Thanks for the music .

DOKKEN was a mainstay of the 80s. All those guys and the whole team should be proud of the output they achieved Big fan of George LYNCH

[@J_Rossi]

Hey, Don. Thanks for everything you've done and are doing for the fans. All the best.

[@stevenkornegay3412]

These videos have been great. Really enjoy hearing from Don!

[@kevincunningham2796]

Have been Rockin' to it since I ordered it off of Amazon 8/28/20. Bought the CD. Love the cover💖👍. Can't wait for the new stuff. Again please put everything you have on it. 30, 40, 50 songs. It doesn't matter. I'LL BUY IT ALL✔

[@larsbonnet17]

I bought the new cd two weeks ago and it’s very interesting and inspirational. I love it. Anyway I’ve been listening to ”Breaking the Chains” every morning in my car driving to work for like three weeks now. I bought it 11 years ago when I became a Dokken nut. It gets my spirit up every morning to teach college students, so thank you Don. Your music makes me prepare better lessons in physics and chemistry so you are indirectly the reason future Finnish engineers know their craft. 🤘🏼

[@zoeybear599]

👋 Don!

[@bradtech519]

Thank you for making the album. It’s been a bright spot in 2020.

[@jason8445]

Been a fan since I was 14, Don. At 47, I'm still a big fan. My 15 year old son likes Dokken too. He was jamming to "The Hunter" last night while doing some homework. Thanks for the music.

Don, I was just watching Dokken videos and came across your channel. I loved your music in the 80s and my first bf played your tapes in his Camero, driving me around. Man, it feels like yesterday when I hear those songs. Good times and great music!

[@lanceprzybyla8270]

Saw every Dokken appearance in Rhode island from the opening of Aerosmith in the early 80's and the Providence civic center to the Station Night club shows...God rest they're souls.

I’m really enjoying this album. My favourite song keeps changing with every listen. Currently I’m loving ‘Day After Day’. It’s a beautiful & emotional song. The guitar playing is pretty awesome. Was that you Don? Keep well, hope you’ll continue posting your video updates. ❤️

Don, these candid and special stories are amazing!!! I can’t think of another band that had as much of an impact that is as gracious and authentic with stories! I love it because no fancy editing or pretense. It’s your words, straight from the artist with no middle main bs. This is extremely rare these days. Btw, im here cuz of Chris and Neely- hail and kill, f u pal and handjob!

Is that the same "prisoner" song from "back for the attack"? P.S. Love your music Don!👍 "Dokken" was my very first favorite band back in 89. I was like six? And it was the shit then, and is the shit now!🎸💫😵👌😎👍✌

[@mrmopar5]

Love DOKKEN! Please do not take this wrong, Don, but I saw some recent live shows from Dokken in the last 5 years or so, and I must say your vocals are tired. Just like Paul Stanley of KISS. Your still on of my favorite singers! I'm not sure why the vocals are so weak,(age?) or what, but I felt bad to hear the live songs did not sound good vocal wise. Just being honest. I still listen to the album Tooth and Nail quite a bit. I was 14 when it came out. I am 52 now. I play guitar and bass. I know that Tom K. of Cinderella had a rough time singing as well a few years back. Please do not take what I am saying the wrong way. I was just really upset to hear the sound of the vocals on the live videos I saw. I believe Rob Beach was on guitar in that show. Just know that you made one hell of a mark on Rock with the guitar blazing George on your side in the early days. "Paris is Burning" on the first album live still rocks my ass off!!!! Blessings Don.

[@kevincunningham2796]

DOKKEN, DOKKEN, DOKKEN, cue the Intro🎸🤟⚡️🔥❣️👍Bought Breaking the chains a few months after graduating in’83. Been my favorite singer & band since🥇

[@wakethebarbarian4577]

Father time doesn't spare anyone. It's good that Don is still trying. Never quit!

[@mrmopar5]

@@wakethebarbarian4577 True that! I was not being a ass. I was just disappointed in the voice in the concert. I saw the same in Paul Stanley. Their voices are just gone. But their legacy will endure!

[@technerdbird]

@@mrmopar5 I think don needed (or still needs) time to recover from his surgery. He had shows scheduled this week (feb 25th was the first one) but they're postponed. He sounded and looked exhausted post-surgery when he sang and I hope when dokken comes back he sounds better

[@mrmopar5]

@@technerdbird I am sure. I just felt bad to see the vocals on a few of You Tube videos of the last few years and he sounded really bad. It is just like if your hand gets arthritis and you cannot play the songs anymore. Guitarists are easy to replace in a band, but the singer is hardest! I really love Dokken!! I was not being an ass, just honest.
