The Doors: Strictly for teenagers?

I'd say no. But if you love Morrison's lyrics because you think he's a wonderful poet, then I'm guessing you quite possibly are a teenager.

The Doors? Nice drumming.

I like em too, and it's a while since I've been a teenager. Old fanships die hard.

Oliver Stone is very old and he thinks Risen "Jim" Mojo is the most impotant artist since Homer.

AOL News carries a story today about the ghost of Jim Morrison being inadvertently photographed standing by his graveside in the Pere Lachaise cemetery, Paris.

Morrison's ghost has one hand in his pocket. Typical.

Hey Eddie, that ain't Jim, he is the background between the two stones, or is he???

I liked The Doors when I was younger, now I don't. But that doesn't mean that I think it's for teenagers

Doesn't Jim's ghost also have his hand in his pocket?

It's quite a neat optical illusion: look at it in one way, and you see the ghost; look at it in another, and all you see are stones.

It's convenient for the Sunday Express, isn't it, that this story should re-surface just in time for Halloween?

Morrison receives most of the attention but the Doors were a very good band. Robby Krieger is/was an excellent guitarist, lyricist, artist. John Densmore was an inventive and solid drummer. Ray Manzarek played the keyboard and organ, and was mostly annoying. Morrison was one hell of a frontman. But Krieger was the real thing.

I dunno, take away Manza Rek from a lot of Doors tunes and there wouldn't be much there. But Kreiger wrote most of Soft Parade, so mad props. I think it's a band that did a good job of transcending the 1960s in a way ... plop down Risen Mojo in any decade and he would probably become a big rocker star. Are the lyrics silly? Eh, not notably more so than most rokbands.

Well it looks to me as if both his arms are out stretched, I may be wrong or maybe there is more than one ghost in the pic?
