...Alright! Alright! Alright!
Hey, listen! Listen! Listen, man! listen, man!
I don't know how many you people believe in astrology...
Yeah, that's right...that's right, baby, I...I am a
Sagittarius
The most philosophical of all the signs


But anyway, I don't believe in it
I think it's a bunch of bullshite, myself
But I tell you this, man, I tell you this
I don't know what's gonna happen, man, but I wanna have
my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames

The same day John Lennon passed away. Pretty significant day.

One of my drivers down in Pensacola is Jim's first cousin. He doesn't fully believe that he is dead.

I didn't really believe him, but he brought in an old family photo when he and Jim were toddlers, I immediately spotted little Jim.

Man, it was the '40s. I am shocked that little Jim doesn't have a heater hanging from his mouth.

Not to sound like a nut job, but I swear I met him about 5 or 6 years ago in the Montmartre area in Paris. We talked for about a half an hour discussing American Indians and Reservations. It wasn't until later that I came across a pick of him when he was older and heavier before his "demise". The resemblance of the man I met, while obviously much older, was uncanny. Who knows, but it would be cool if someone eventually found him. He was an artist btw.

I saw the band at the Hollywood Bowl and at a club called The Bank in Torrance, CA. He wasn't very animated at either place, and had nowhere near the audience command that Jagger, Hendrix and others possessed quite naturally.

I imagine Morrison's reputation for showmanship derived from the Doors' club time on the Sunset Strip, before the heavy drinking sort of zombified the man. That's just my guess.
