The doors - The end [live in Toronto - 1967 - Part 2]

[donnybrooklads]

When you hear bands in Manchester in the 80's say how they were influenced by teh Doors it only goes to show you how effective they were.

[shamuswinston]

A lot of people don't realize how far ahead of their time the Doors were. The End was written in 1966...Rock n' roll back then was more or less pretty commercial and didn't really have much to say. Jim Morrison read Nietzsche and William Blake, and wrote poetry, and incorporated that into The Doors music...It's pretty amazing when you think about it.

[kongonbong]

I had a friend at this show and he said the first half Morrison was out of his (surprise surprise!) and staring at a pile of cable and had to be coersed to get on stage and sing....Still!!! I wish iwas there!

[zouraris4]

Now that I look at Jim Morrison in this show I realize that Val Kilmer looks exactly like him in the movie!!! Even to the way he walks at 6:15

[low72]

god this is badass. one of my top 5 all time favorite songs. LOVE Jim's long strung out vocals. so psychedelic

[0x51d]

The Doors in perfection ladies and gentlemen

[Taaaaaaaaaatinha]

WOOOOW \/ 

[srbaran]

If Jim Morrison was alive today, there wouldn't be mosh pits at his concerts. People would just stand and listen. Also, I think I recall hearing that he hated it when the audience was loud. He went there to sing, and not be drowned out by screaming kids.

[mrmonkeyisland1]

Christ, those of us not around in the 60's missed so much.

[BayviewFinch]

@mrmonkeyisland1 - Yeah right. We get to watch this now. Only a few saw it back then. They didn't even have the concept of the internet. You know how lame it was back then? Sure there were the odd good times like this, but really... Imagine how narrow-minded people were back then. They knew nothing outside their tiny worlds. You went home and had pork chops, canned peas, and mashed potatoes for dinner. Every night. Every single person around you was white. No thanks!

[jroxx11211]

@BayviewFinch Boy you have no idea what went on in the sixties, it was a time of exploration, free love, psychadelic experimentations, new rock music coming out every day, civil rights, the vietnam war, man you are so narrow minded, people today eat pork chops n canned peas, and plenty of places are still all white, there was an explosion of new concepts, tune in, turn on, drop out, radicals, black panthers, the SLA, huey newton, the muslim nation, YOU HAVE NO CLUE, I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU!!!!!!

[BayviewFinch]

@jroxx11211 - Obviously you're so full of love as it's all that I feel coming from you.

[jroxx11211]

@BayviewFinch Thats all you got? when someone challenges your opinion with facts, you just make a personal comment? all i did was point out everything you said was wrong, i never said i was full of love, i knew what happened in the sixties because i was born in 1960, you said how lame it was, thats a bold statement but obviously you have no idea what went on, your just comparing it to today, yea we have the internet, is that what makes life so exciting today, staring at a computer screen???

[BayviewFinch]

@jroxx11211 - Sorry, man, but you're not just showing the love. Speak for yourself please.

[jroxx11211]

@BayviewFinch i am speaking for myself, im stating my opinion, which is based on fact, you probably werent even alive in the sixties, what do you really know about it? c'mon man, you made a statement, everyone was narrow minded, really? everyone? they knew nothing outside their little worlds? nothing? where did rock n roll come from? the internet? i dont think so, everyone was white? thats so rediculous, ya ever been to N.Y? I doubt it! theres more diverse culture there than anywhere else!!!!

[BayviewFinch]

@jroxx11211 - I simply challenged mrmonkeys comment about how the past is better than the present. It's ironic because the 60's also ushered in Eastern spirituality, so finally Westerners started getting a glimpse of the present moment instead of always looking to the past or future, avoiding reality. If you want to believe that the present is worse than the past, be my guest. You're simply condemning yourself to being unhappy, because you can't live in the past, you have to live now.

[BayviewFinch]

@jroxx11211 - It's important to find gratitude in the present moment. Complaining about today's kids and today's society is a bummer. Learn to feel gratitude. There's a lot of positive happening now. Again, if you choose to see it as negative, you're only condemning yourself.

[jroxx11211]

you say its important to find gratitude in the present, but all you did was say how bad it was back then, your a total contradiction, how narrow minded people were back then, they knew nothing outside their tiny worlds, thats totally negative, i never said anything about todays society or kids, your just twisting it because im right that you have no clue what happened back then, i live in the present, but appreciate the past, its where we came from, its influenced everything we know and do!!!

[BayviewFinch]

@jroxx11211 - I was simply giving another perspective on the tired old, "Oh, it was so much better in the past" line. I don't buy it. I think that people now are much more open-minded. Not everyone back in the 60's was benefiting from the influx of positive vibes. I think people today are more environmentally conscious, more educated, more traveled, more open to new ways of thinking, eat a better variety of food, live more in the present moment, have healthier sex lives, etc. etc.

[jroxx11211]

@BayviewFinch I Definitely agree that we're more environmentally aware, educated, and generally more advanced because we learn as time progresses, its just natural, that the more time goes on, we advance in every way, i never said it was better back then, just that there was more going on than you had stated, it was a time of social awakening, we were starting to open our minds to new ways of thinking, i never meant to get down on you, just point out the sixties were wilder than you knew.

[BayviewFinch]

@jroxx11211 OK.

[jroxx11211]

@jroxx11211 

[jroxx11211]

@mrmonkeyisland1 i was born in '60 and grew up in the best time for rock n roll, as a kid my older brother n sister turned me onto all the new great music coming out every day in the late 60s n early seventies, i saw led zeppelin at the garden in N.Y. in '77, it was the greatest show ive ever seen, and ive seen over 200 shows since then, i feel so lucky to have been in around then, the best time to experience all the new music coming out every day, but you can see it all now on youtube, ROCK ON!

[stakesizhigh]

How in Gods name does this compare to Pompeii?! lol It's really good and I love The Doors and Jim Morrison. Better than Pompeii though?? Thats just funny.

[Commando2936]

this is my absolutely favorite video ever! Better than any floyd video i've seen but Live at Pompeii is close.. this is way better though

[TheEvilWalrusLord]

@Commando2936

majorly debatable. i agree with stakesizhigh... pompeii is legendary, echoes is absolutely magnificent. The setting and the song and the subtle changes they make from their normal version is just epic. as much raw sensuality, beauty and talent mr mojo risin here can exude (as he always does), Live at Pompeii is a superior video... Although i must say this show is trippy as shit, kudos to all (live and dead) members of the band on a great performance :)

[IVoNzIpPeRI]

[thejakeludwig]

@fabio117 Good for you....while your dad was at this show my dad was in Nam watching people get killed!

[TASLOCO702]

[Roseabovethis]

@thejakeludwig

Your a pathetic dink. Your the scum we all scrutinize, hard to find people like you, hide in dark places... Karma will bring you to your knees

[bababacardi]

@fabio117 ask him to write something here :)

[BlaineGESSNER]

@fabio117 Your dad is only lucky son of a gun! I would love to have been at one of these guy's concerts.

[masterfurniture]

not Paganini. IN fact, there is no comparison. He was and is our Morrison. Eat your mom's ovum.

[galaxysoccer34]

thats not neccesarry

[masterfurniture]

no one; no one compares to Morrison. 24 years old. We are mortals--as are all singer of his genre. he is our Paganini

[rubensosatuub]
