une spéciale Bob, George Lynch a déclaré que le line-up original de Dokken se reformerait probablement en 2009,
A 24-minute audio interview with George Lynch (DOKKEN, LYNCH MOB, SOULS OF WE) conducted by Norway's Metal Express Radio following a recent guitar clinic in Oslo has been posted online at this location. Lynch discusses his new band SOULS OF WE (which also features former BRIDES OF DESTRUCTION vocalist London LeGrand), the upcoming LYNCH MOB tour with CINDERELLA and WARRANT, and the possibility of a DOKKEN reunion with him on guitar. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow:
On his efforts to bring the original DOKKEN lineup back together:
Lynch: "The other thing that might be happening, which I've been trying to get together for the last few years, is a DOKKEN reunion. I would bet money that maybe next year it might happen. It's hard to say. But it almost happened this year. I think where it fell apart is that... for one thing, Jeff [Pilson, bass] wasn't going to be in the band, so it already would have been [just] three of the original four members, and secondly, we'd have to be opening for WARRANT [on a bill that was also to include CINDERELLA in the headlining slot], which… I didn't think that was right. Not saying anything about WARRANT, but with us coming back with original members, I think that was strong enough for us to be at least a second [on the bill], if not a headliner. Don [Dokken] had a problem with that, and I agree with him to a certain extent. So I think next year, we'll maybe get together — all four members, including Jeff Pilson. We'll see."
On the "personal issues" between him and Don Dokken:
Lynch: "I think Don has issues with himself, which I don't really have anything to do with. [Laughs] I have learned to sort of be more accomodating in my old age where I don't think it'll bother me — I can't imagine it would; I've dealt with more difficult situations, you know, than… So… that's OK. What I think about every day is just how fun it would be to go out there and play for the fans and see the smiles on their faces, and there'll be a smile on my face playing those songs that we wrote 25 years ago. And [we'd be playing] for big crowds again — it's been a while since we've been out in front of big crowds like that, so… I mean, what's not to be happy about? [Laughs] If you can't be happy at that point, then you might as well shoot yourself. [Laughs] It doesn't get any better than that."
