Thoughts on the Forthcoming Box Set??

We're lucky to have former Doors road manager Vince Treanor here to answer fan questions and share some of his memories. Ask Vince about anything related to the equipment The Doors used, stage set-ups, specific concerts, the band after Jim's death, and working on the Oliver Stone movie.

BOX SET

Post by vince »

All the best material that the Doors, as a group, recoded has been released many times over in many combinations. I cannot see what could be new, although there is claim that there will be previously unheard or unsees materials.

OK - But is the studio talk and such worth that amount of money? I think not.

It is certain that I will not get an autographed copy from the Management or Dave. I can't even get an answer to a simple but serious question.

Personally, I think that the price is way too high to be a financial success. Who knows. Good luck to them.

More interesting and probably far more accurate, will be the book. But it will come out in paper back and maybe, if I don't die first and I can get back to the States, I can get a copy. Ray was Kind enough to provide a copy of his book, which I read with interest and enthusiasm, Maybe I can get a crumb or two.

That's my 4 cents, for what it is worth (I am on overtime).
