Dechristo Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Loved this guy's hutzpah and verve. One of my all-time favorite rock lead singers. Quote
EWolfe Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 (edited) I had a great collection of bootleg tapes back in the day. Laugh all you want, they were on TDK Metal Reference, Baby! MAR Old Skool Hey, Mister LightMan... Si1Gkj6DkOE edit: sucks how they cut it off. Edited April 15, 2007 by MisterE Quote
Frikadeller Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 why the hell pardon a stiff? Do you really think that HE cares? Plus, I know I don't. (It also helps that I HATE the Doors music. All their songs seem to last WAY too long and sound like four songs smashed together. What a headache) Quote
Dechristo Posted April 15, 2007 Author Posted April 15, 2007 It also helps that I HATE the Doors music. All their songs seem to last WAY too long and sound like four songs smashed together. What a headache Maybe, it's one of those things where you had to be there. Warm summer night, cruisin' down the highway in a car filled with guy and gal friends, partyin', with the windows down, and the buzz is fine. The radio DJ has been playin' good, but low-energy, tunes when a pause in the conversation reveals the opening sounds of "LA Woman". The volume gets cranked and the party receives a super-charge. Good times. Favorite Doors album: Quote
KaskadskyjKozak Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 My favorite Door's lyrics: I WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND I GOT MYSELF A BEER THE FUTURE'S UNCERTAIN, AND THE END IS ALWAYS NEAR. Well, that and Horse Latitudes... and "The monk bought lunch" from some song... The Doors rock! Quote
ZimZam Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 Driving through a wicked thunderstorm. Lightning flashing all around. And BOOM, then radio starts playing "Riders of the Storm." Electric organ raindrops. Someboby get me some paper. Quote
TREETOAD Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 (edited) I was driving back along the Sooke road from the head of the West Coast Trail one Sunday morning in the summer. It is a very windy narrow, and remote road that switchbacks up and over to the west coast of Vancouver Island. I came around a corner and saw a bunch of dust rising up from the edge of the road over a very steep embankment. I pulled over into the ditch on the other side of the road and jumped out, scurried down the bank. The slope had been logged and was littered with debris but down around 150 feet I could see an MG upside down smoking away. I steeled myself for what I might find and slid down through the maze of stumps. As I approached the smashed car the sound of the very beginning of The End came wafting out from under the car. It was so fucking creepy. I could hear moaning and I could see blood on the ground so I laid down and looked in and saw a couple of the luckiest guys in the world. Both were hanging in their seats and actually alive. The car had come to rest with the hood and trunk laying on stumps. They were cut up and bleeding from the head but I was able to get them out of the car and they made it up the bank on their own as the Doors played in the background. I love the Doors, remember the times like they were yesterday, there will never be times like those again. Rock on!! Edited April 15, 2007 by TREETOAD Quote
