According to Dokken bandleader Don Dokken, Netflix is currently "making a movie about Dokken from the '80s" that's shares a similarity with Motley Crue's 2019 Netflix biopic, The Dirt. And for the film, he told at least one wild throwback story involving former Van Halen singer David Lee Roth.

That's what we know from Dokken's interview with The Hook Rocks! podcast last week (Oct. 24).

On the episode, the Dokken singer vividly recounted the '80s rock tale that involves him and the Van Halen vocalist, which took place at the venerable Los Angeles club the Whisky a Go Go, a venue that's part of the focus of Dokken's origin story on Hollywood's famed Sunset Strip.

A Dokken Movie on Netflix?

After telling The Hook Rocks! that Netflix is "making a movie about Dokken from the '80s" — the singer added it has "the same director" as The Dirt — Dokken continued, "It's going to be a good movie. A couple months ago I went down and they wanted to film me at the Whisky where we started. And they just asked me questions." (via Blabbermouth)

He explained, "There's been so much talked about the Whisky and the Rainbow [Bar and Grill] and everything that went on. People don't realize The Doors were the house band at the Whisky at one point. And I just said, 'Well, I'll try to come up with some stories.' Because it's already been put out there in The Dirt and Netflix about the Rainbow."

What's in the Dokken Movie?

Dokken shared of what he told the filmmaking team for the Dokken movie, "I tried to come up with stuff that people haven't heard. And I told the director, 'But I really shouldn't be talking about this stuff because it's pretty [filled with] debauchery.'"

However, "I told him a story about … the Whisky, there's only one bathroom upstairs and three dressing rooms, and we could never get in the dang bathroom when we were playing with Van Halen because David Lee Roth made that his temporary sex office," the singer said. "When the door was locked, I'm, like, 'David, come on, man. You've got four guys out here that need to pee.' He's like, 'I'll be out in a minute.' I'm like, 'Come on.'"
