Imagine my surprise when, last night, I walked into the J&R Music Store only to see none other than George Lynch, formerly of Dokken, on a stage with his guitar, giving a guitar clinic. It was already in progress when I came into the session. He talked a lot about his career and played some solo instrumental versions of some of his songs. He had an excellent solo about fifteen years ago called, I think, Sacred Groove. At least when I was there he didn't play any of his Dokken material, I am sure given his not so cozy association with Don Dokken, that there are some bad memories there.
George must be praised as one of the best guitarists of the '80s metal scene and it was certainly a pleasant surprise to find him there, even though I wish I could have seen the whole session.
