rock rare collection fetish: The DOORS - Live At Long Beach Arena 7 February 1970

I was there. Jim said, "Sorry, but I've been sick for the last....300 years!" to explain his hoarse voice. I thought that was really funny. He asked the audience a few times to not leave. He did not seem to like "Crystal Ship" and stopped it. I had never seen a band do that. They did a lot of "Morrison Hotel" songs, and very well. Their sound system was the clearest of any rock band I had ever heard. I swear I saw a fifth guy on a few songs playing bass in the background, a large guy in a floppy hat. As we all know, Ray played the bass lines live, but in the studio they used a real bass player. I wonder if that was the case here. They didn't really get into it until the end of the show, after Morrison told the light man to lower the lights again. This concert struck me as very strange and spooky. Jim died a few months after!

Canada has the right idea

Let's Start Over!

Just waiting for November, 2012. How about you? No, I don't mean the Aztec calendar thing, I mean the U.S. Presidential election. I think there will be a big surprise! Other than that, looks like everything is on a downward spiral! Enjoy it while you can, kids!
