GEORGE LYNCH, JEFF PILSON Perform DOKKEN Song With STEEL PANTHER (Video)

Former DOKKEN members George Lynch (guitar) and Jeff Pilson (bass) joined STEEL PANTHER on stage on December 13, 2010 at the Key Club in Hollywood, California to perform the classic DOKKEN track "Into The Fire". Fan-filmed video footage of their appearance can be viewed below.

In a recent interview with Metal-Rules.com, Lynch stated about the much-rumored DOKKEN reunion plans, "Don [Dokken, vocals] has been making noises, and we've been having meetings, and we've been doing shows together with LYNCH MOB and SOULS OF WE, we did [the] Loud Park [festival] in Japan together and all this stuff, and it's like, and he said, 'Okay, I'm committing to it,' but we never put it on paper, and so my last few conversations with him is that he sounds like he's trying to get me to be a hired gun. And I told him, 'Dude, I told you from the first moment I'll never do that, I'm not a hired-gun guy.' . . . That was always my problem with him — that he was not an honest, trustful person, and I... He never said what he meant, and never did what he said. And that, to me, is a lack of character, and I don't like playing with people with no character. . . It was that, and that was all related to money. So, it's all a bad way to conduct yourself."
