Why is the Lounge obsessed with the Doors?
I understand why the Lounge is obsessed with cats, but why the Doors?

Why that particular band?

3. Not just tonight. It's been weeks of Doors threads, Doors polls,
Doors flame wars, what is it with the Doors?

He's DEAD. Get over it.

2. Because you need Doors to let the cats in and out of the Lounge.

6. Really?
I didn't know that. I remember reading his book.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize that happened today.

7. No apology necessary.
:-)

I to read that book and hated it!!!!!!!!! It was horribly written and as I found out years later, Mr. Morrison was much more complex than Sugerman reported - he was a wannabe.

Agree with you about the book. Really bad.

13. That book made me hate The Doors!!!!!
Then I saw this great documentary where Jim Morrison was featured - he didn't come across as bad as many made him out to be. In fact, I came away from it understanding what he was trying to do. A lot of it was just wild & crazy theater. :shrug:

So I don't hate Jim Morrison or The Doors any more.
