January is typically the coldest month of the year around these parts, but George Lynch of Dokken fame helped warm things up considerably this weekend with a searing set of fretboard pyrotechnics Saturday night. George's other band, Lynch Mob tore through a hit-laden set featuring both Lynch Mob and Dokken classics for the packed house.
