i've heard somewhere that bobby blotzer of ratt fame played in an early version of dokken, but i'm not confident of the accuracy of this enough to add it to the article.

of course, juan croucier was in dokken before ratt (i'm not getting the 2 of them confused). Gringo300 00:47, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mick Mars

Wasn't Mick Mars (of Mötley Crüe) an early member of Dokken as well?

No, he wasn't. (He was in Spiders and Cowboys)

[edit] Mikkey Dee

So when Mikkey Dee (Motorhead deity though he is) says he was "with" Dokken, he means the solo project of Don Dokken and not this band? 193.238.233.2 14:45, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dance remake?

I have decided to remove the following trivia bit, as I believe the person who stated this was confused, thinking of Real McCoy's "Another Night" 90's dance track. I'll post the bit I removed anyway, just in case it finds a citation.

  • The Dokken hit "In My Dreams" was re-recorded by a female dance artist many years later, who scored a hit with it.[citation needed] Lunis Neko 02:59, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] volcano

anyone else hear about them setting off a volcano once?Д narchistPig 00:24, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV?

The intro paragraph reads like something off a fan site rather than an encyclopedia, trying to defend the band against being categorized with other 80's "hair metal" bands. Can we come up with something better here? And something cited, rather than just opinion? DragonsDream (talk) 00:39, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
