It all looks amicable and friendly. Maybe it was just time to move on?

Who will clone John Sykes now.
I got Jesus in my fax machine. I saw Ho Chi Minh down @ Burger King. I dated Vinnie Vincent as a Drag Queen. I still don't understand a f**kin' thing.
I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass and I'm all out of bubble gum.

Bummer. I loved the last album.

John Sykes is available if he can get over his hate for Dave Coverdale. He is also a great singer songwriter so I would call him a true artist. Doug did nail his style live though....................

Not a bad idea. The Winery Dogs can't go on forever.

He'd probably get bored......and he can sing better than David now!

Portnoy will screw it up soon enough!

"Ladies & Gentlemen...Boys & Girls...Your Attention, Please...:)

One of the first, if not the first, guitarists to put his name forward after hearing that Doug Aldrich had left the band, was an exceptionally talented musician whom we had met briefly last year when his band opened for Whitesnake in Arizona.

Everyone was very impressed by him, not only for his ability to play amazing guitar, but, also, his very agreeable personality & he was definitely foremost in our minds when we began to search for Doug’s replacement in Whitesnake.

We jammed together & were mutually impressed enough to ask him to join Whitesnake on the spot. This was May 30th. 2014.

Joel is currently fulfilling his remaining tour dates with Night Ranger.

We sincerely thank you all for your patience & understanding...& so, without further ado, we ask you to welcome, as we have done, our exceptionally gifted new Snake Brother...

JOEL HOEKSTRA...Guitarist Extraordinaire" ~David Coverdale

A tall, dirty-blonde haired guy playing a goldtop Les Paul for Whitesnake......hmmmmm, now where have seen that for the last 10 years??? :P :P :P

Guessing he'll be a good fit...now if Coverdale could sign like 10 years ago........
