the end [live] - jim morrison the doors

Fucking true. Iggy Pop saw the doors and basically mimiced Jim's madness with the stooges. Doors were punk before anyone.

The Doors were punk? Why must you insult them?

its a matter of perception.
i don't think jim would consider being called the founder of punk music an insult.
if you think about it, the doors were very much on the edge, just like punk music..

No, it's a matter of truth, and to speak the truth is to say of what is that it is and of what is not that it is not. Whether Jim would or would not think it an insult, it's in truth a grave insult. For punk "music" - unlike the music of The Doors - is fundamentally rooted in nihilism. In short, it's anti-music, anti-skill, anti-beauty and all the rest of it. To place The Doors on the same plane as the likes of the Sex Pistols, for example, is then among the most horrid smears against them.

nobody is comparing the doors to the sex pistols but you.
whats being said, is that punk music was influenced by the doors, thus making the doors, and maybe the velvet underground, the roots of punk music.

Exactly. I posted that second comment before I read your discussion here. Yeah, punk is supposed to be anti everything, but really it's rebellion against society. Jim Morrison was rebelling against society, too. Some of his behavior is nearly sociopathic, but all of it beautiful. Musically punk has few similarities to The Doors music. That's clear. But some of the ideas behind all of it are very similar. The earliest punk feels like it had Doors influence to me personally, but I don't know.

What year is this?
