... well T&N ( = Tooth and Nail) actually, so Lynch, Pilson, Brown and Michael Sweet to go on tour... what a weird mish-mash... I try to imagine Michael to sing those songs and I guess he would nail most of them pretty good, however it feels kinda strange... Would prefer Stryper to tour more and play some 500+/- kinda halls in Europe to see them again (that was very good last year when they did play "Rock the Nations" festival) Would feel pretty dumb when Michael leaves the stage or only plays guitar and then Jeff sings some songs as they plan to do (even when he is a good singer though) What do you think ?http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924925#msg-924925Thu, 20 Jun 2013 13:33:53 +1000 Phorum 5.2.16 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925180#msg-925180 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925180#msg-925180lol

The current line-up is:
Tom Scholz (of course)
Tommy DeCarlo
David Victor
Gary Pihl (long-time member of Boston, since Third Stage era)
Tracy Ferrie (former bassist of Stryper)
Curly Smith (played drums for boston 1994-1997, returned for this tour)

They allegedly have a new album in the works.

DD's re-workings (currently in progress) of a "Best Of" MICHAEL SCHENKER's Thank You songs couldbe interesting, as DD does the soft acoustic stuff well.

Michael hasn't been in Boston for quite a while now, he didn't even tour with them over the Summer..]]> Roadie NoticeboardTue, 01 Jan 2013 17:36:22 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925083#msg-925083 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925083#msg-925083
Lynch Mob, they need to get their act together and figure out what it best for those involved and decide whether or not to move forward or not. AS much as I think Robert Mason would be a better fit in LM now - he is still establishing himself in Warrant.

But in all honesty, I think we'll see Dokken back in less than a decade - and this time it will be with all original line up.]]> nobycane NoticeboardTue, 01 Jan 2013 02:20:21 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925074#msg-925074 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925074#msg-925074 Snake65 NoticeboardMon, 31 Dec 2012 23:54:20 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925062#msg-925062 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,925062#msg-925062

Michael Sweet....I cannot really judge at this stage because we really do not know what he will bring to the table with both T&N and Dokken songs in the set list......so, we'll have to sit back and wait and see.]]> nobycane NoticeboardMon, 31 Dec 2012 12:02:26 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924996#msg-924996 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924996#msg-924996 Snake65 NoticeboardSun, 30 Dec 2012 23:36:49 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924995#msg-924995 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924995#msg-924995 Snake65 NoticeboardSun, 30 Dec 2012 23:33:26 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924958#msg-924958 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924958#msg-924958 Troy NoticeboardSun, 30 Dec 2012 08:23:48 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924943#msg-924943 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924943#msg-924943http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924473,924473#msg-924473]]> rocknut NoticeboardSun, 30 Dec 2012 04:17:51 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924940#msg-924940 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,924925,924940#msg-924940

Be interesting to see where this goes. Another album of half-covers/half-new with a variety of singers, or a fixed line-up with Michael fronting it?

Would prefer Stryper to tour more and play some 500+/- kinda halls in Europe to see them again (that was very good last year when they did play "Rock the Nations" festival)

Would feel pretty dumb when Michael leaves the stage or only plays guitar and then Jeff sings some songs as they plan to do (even when he is a good singer though)
