OT: Just heard from Don

[Natalie]

Did you at least confess the man crush that you have on him??

He probably doesn't need anymore crushing, after being mobbed by 10,000 fans in FL.

So are you saying that you didn't spend enough time takken with Dokken to tell him that Rokken is near the point of Stalkken?

Ok, ok, I'll stop, I know at this point I'm just mokken!!!!

[Rip Rokken]

Hey, that was almost.......... pretty good.

[Natalie]

Hey, that was almost.......... pretty good.

Hey, it was shokken-I'm chalkken it up as a "good one"!!!! I'm sure it was worthy of knokken your stokken's off!!!!!!

Now, stop your gawkken and go dream of Dokken. OK, I better get to restokken my "okken" words.

[Ratgirl]

Gotta give props to Krista for letting me use her phone. She called you for me during some Dokken tunes since I decided to call a few people
and run my battery down on my phone earlier that day.

It was me you talked to though and who put the "Dokken dude" on the phone.

We went up to meet Ryche first and then came downstairs and he was sitting at the merchandise table. I was like "woah look.. aint that
the Dokken dude?" LOL!!! The people we were with got a good laugh out of that. I called you as soon as I got to the table and showed him
your MR pics. He loved that. LOL!!!

The chances are good you'll meet him... that is if you can break the mob away.
From what I heard earlier that day he decided to moon some friends of ours off the hotel balcony.

[Ratgirl]

RATGIRL DID IT!!!! She just put me on the phone with DON DOKKEN.... BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! AWESOME!!! Thanks, Ang! I owe ya a big one... let me know how I can return the favor.

You realize that was actually Dean you were on the phone with right? Just kidding, good on ya Rip!

LOL!!! Nooo.. I'm not that mean.. or am I?

[Perrydise]

For the last time, mom, I'm not going to get you a hook up w/Don!

Thank God for small favors!!

LMFREAKINGASSOFF.

RIP YOU ARE SOMETHING ELSE.

I finally seen this at 6:30 in the morning, I spit coffee all over the place and just about peed at the same time. I see I raised you well

How great that Ang got Don to talk to you!

[Natalie]

For the last time, mom, I'm not going to get you a hook up w/Don!

Thank God for small favors!!

I just thought of something......does this mean that Don could be your father Rip??????????????????????????????

[Moon Beam]

What a cool thing for you to do Ratgirl.....nice!

Rip Rokken I'm happy for you Fella.

[Rip Rokken]

Hey, that was almost.......... pretty good.

Hey, it was shokken-I'm chalkken it up as a "good one"!!!! I'm sure it was worthy of knokken your stokken's off!!!!!!

Now, stop your gawkken and go dream of Dokken. OK, I better get to restokken my "okken" words.

LOL! Another Dokkaholic...

You rock, and please tell Krista I said thanks! Did she hook up with Don? Glad he liked the pics... I'm taking more with me to Dallas... haha! Did you tell him about "Rip Rokken" and all the MelodicRock Dokken insanity? We are going to get him to call Rhiannon in Dallas... So he was drunk and mooning people from the hotel -- classic!!!

So Queensryche does a meet and greet, too? (and not just for VIP ticket holders or fan clubbers?) Sweet!

LOL! I'll let her tell her side of the story when she gets home.
He was busy talking to others so I didnt get the chance to tell him about MR (sorry Andrew). I put the pics on the table and he grabbed them and started looking at them. At the same time I had you on the phone and just put the phone up to his ear and he took it and started talking. He acted like their was a whole "mob" but there was only about 5 or 6 of us standing there.

From what I gathered he did the mooning thing earlier that day.

I'm in Ryche's FC, that's how I got the M&G.

[Rip Rokken]

You realize that was actually Dean you were on the phone with right? Just kidding, good on ya Rip!

It could have been, cause as it turns out they are actually in cahoots, and I have the evidence to prove it!



Yep... This whole "Dokken Sucks" campaign was nothing more than a brilliant publicity gimmick.

Now the question remains, was it really Don Dokken's bare butt hanging over the hotel balcony, or Deano's?

[Rip Rokken]

I'm in Ryche's FC, that's how I got the M&G.

Maybe I should join before Saturday.... Wonder if it's too late?

So, Rip......the Donster already knows about you!!! He may run the other direction when he sees us coming on Saturday night!! We will have him talk dirty to Rhi......those hillbillies like that, you know!!!

[Rip Rokken]

I keep seeing this image In My Dreams, so maybe it's possible...

[Rip Rokken]

I just laid down $30 to join the Queensryche fan club and request soundcheck and meet-n-greet passes for Queensryche -- they are not guaranteed, and I'm doing it pretty last minute, but I also left them 2 voicemails to try to get it done. If I get these, they will cover 2 peeps. Whichever one of you isn't smooching on Don can join me.

Yeah, we'll get Don to say something special and romantic to Rhiannon....

[Rockindeano]

Did you at least confess the man crush that you have on him??

He probably doesn't need anymore crushing, after being mobbed by 10,000 fans in FL.

Did your "0" key stick? There are about two extra zeros on that number.

Wonder if Soto went? Angela?

You are on a mission, my friend!!! Jen and I can have a cat fight to see who wins the extra pass.....that should provide some entertainment at the restaurant!! Rick....you REALLY don't want to miss this!!!!

I know this much... Saturday in Dallas, there will be at least one extra zero at the show...

[lights1961]

some funny crap in here!!

10,000 fans seem a bit high--- i did not know there was that many dokken fans in the world. I new RIP was one... who are the others!!

Rick

[Rip Rokken]

Haha.... worst case, maybe I can catch them taking a crap in the men's room.

Hey, you know, we should film this or something! Make a little mini-documentary out of it! I have a camcorder, but it uses DAT tapes. I might bring it anyway. Even more, we should try to land an interview w/Don for MR, "Rip Rokken"-style... I'm hoping they won't be in too much of a hurry to bolt the venue, as they have a few days off before their next gig.

LOL! Krista walked right by and didnt even notice him. She was about to walk out the door.
I didnt see Jeff or Gary at the Orlando or Tampa show.

You probably did wait too late. They usually do the drawing for the passes & soundcheck 7 to 10 days before the show.

[Rip Rokken]

You probably did wait too late. They usually do the drawing for the passes & soundcheck 7 to 10 days before the show.

I did notice that if someone cancels (assuming they even notify), they will reassign passes all the way up to the day of the show, so anyway... fingers crossed.

Jeff and Gary were probably at Chili's dabbling in some red wine and cheese plates, and looking over the Orlando Sentinel.

JSS:"Hey Gare, Dokken is in town tonight. Shall we drive over and see them?
Gary: "Where are they playing Jeffy?"
JSS:"Let's see, they are playing at the grand re-opening of the Orlando Kmart."
Gary: "Well, I don't think we should drive after 2 glasses of Merlot Jeff."
JSS: You're right. I don't know what I was thinking
Gary: Shall we go over and shoot baskets big guy?
JSS: Sure Gare, that would be nice. I'd like that.
JSS: Wait wait! REO Speedwagon is playing down the street at Mo' Bowling Lanes!
Gary: I'll Drive!

[Ratgirl]

LOL! Dean...

Dokken really wasnt that bad.. when he remembered the lyrics.

[Rhiannon]

We will have him talk dirty to Rhi......those hillbillies like that, you know!!!

Somebody's got to... (That about covers my range of emotion.)

Hey Gayle, did you get a good night's sleep???

[Rhiannon]

Yeah, we'll get Don to say something special and romantic to Rhiannon....

I can hear it now... "The Dokk-Sokk becons you, my minx."

[Rip Rokken]

Goodluck and I'll cash in my favor if you do meet them.

PM me with any requests, and I shall do my best...
