March 1, 1969: The Doors infamous Miami concert

[Apex]

On March 1, 1969, the Doors gave their infamous Miami concert in Dinner Key Auditorium, Coconut Grove, Miami, Florida, USA.

I was there with the other 3 members of my group.

Very good story here!

You are a very small part of Rock history.... a person who attended the Doors' Miami concert  :o... amazing really!

That's a great anecdote. I like to remember him just for his work, it's a shame so many have assumed he was, as a human being,  something more than just a poet who became famous and developed a serious drug/alchohol problem. He never took himself that seriously, I don't think.

One of my fave Morrison moments was in a documentary where they decided to introduce each member of the band as they deplaned somewhere... :Name? Profession?" Each of the guys answered with their name, then the instrument they played.

 Jim was last, and he gave his name, but when asked "profession?" he just started laughing.  :D

I just watched the Doors movie the other day.

Wow, it certainly takes a side on portraying Morrison.

Apex, I've been seaching the web for info on the 69 concert for The Doors and came up with your response.

My bass player, who was with me that night, got back in touch with me recently, I hadn't heard from him in 38 years.
