I don't even know why I cried.

@pikachusevilmuffin Because Ray hits the right notes, and the right notes hit the right triggers, and suddenly you cry...

That was beautiful. Thanks for the upload.

I loved the blue light behind Ray.

I am in Melbourne, Australia and it would be my dream to see the remaining Doors members perform or eve if Ray were to perform.

Where would be the best place to keep an eye on upcoming shows around the world?

Once again, thank you.

@miles2057 Glad you liked it. You might try checking tour dates at Ray's website.

If that doesn't do it for you he's got a whole bunch of other links on the site, and comments pages where you can ask the big cheese himself...

@miles2057 I'd give you the link but damn YouTube posting software doesn't seem to want to let me include a link. Lame. Sorry. Google it.

I've seen Ray perform this so many times. It never gets old. Nice camera work and sound. Thanks for recording this.

[hrothrekr23]

@DDutkowski Thanks for the appreciation! I'm glad you like the camera work and sound, but honestly this is a triumph of tech convenience over tech excellence. Shot on an iPhone 3GS. Sound and image capture could be better, but this never would have been shot at all if didn't all fit in my pocket. I'm not posting the other more rocking songs because the iPhone mic just can't handle the heavy bass. Turns to fuzz.

The Master Of Keoyboard!

@hrothrekr23 That explains my tears.

This song makes me remember what it ffeels when you lost the thing that just a simple man could ever love the most in this world of pure sh*t

[Pmitsou123]

That's fantastic...

We caught Ray with Roy Rogers last night in White River Junction, VT and is was an amazing show. 2nd row and was just having to much fun to pull out my iPhone. Glad you did!
