Eight Gigs: Dokken

Sat., May 30, 7 p.m., Ace of Spades, $22

Singer Don Dokken is known for being a complicated guy. As frontman of Dokken, which started in 1976, he's seen many bandmates come and go. Drummer Mick Brown, fortunately, lasted the majority of that time. The band rose to fame and fortune with guitarist George Lynch and bassist Jeff Pilson, but those two pivotal members are no longer part of the equation. If you've been dying to hear Dokken classics “Breaking the Chains,” “Alone Again” and “In My Dreams,” your thirst for quality glam and hard rock will be quenched. Restrayned, Roswell and Force of Habit open the show; so come early and support your locals. 1417 R Street, www.dokkencentral.com.
