That is screamingly funny and horrendously pathetic all at the same time.

Dokken looks like some old fat banker that rides a Harley on the weekend.

George Lynch really has to be happy he didn't get mixed up in that.

I'm gonna bet a Dokken show these days is pretty bad. He couldn't even hit the high notes live when they were in their prime. They're probably playing everything like, 4 keys lower by now.

Kinda dumb commercial, but I was a Dokken/Lynch fan a while back.

Leave it to a bunch of musicians to completely overshoot the comedic aspect...

Yes It's real.
Apparently I have a dead sense of humor.
