Jim vs/his parents

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.

Jim vs/his parents

Post by Pierre-Yves »

Hello Vince,
couple years ago I read, don't remember where, that before leaving for Paris, Jim was thinking to get back intouch with his parents. What did you know about that ? I know Jim never lost contact with his brother Andy, did you ever saw Andy around Jim or even Anne, his sister ?

Thank you so much for your time,
with all my sincere respect,
Pierre-Yves

Hello Pierre:

Andy was at the office I think once or twice. I did not meet hom. He was in town to see Jim rather than just make a visit to the world famous magnificent palace that we called our international corporate headquarters. Complete with black steel stairs for medern art.

He was quite remote from his parents and whether or not he was thinking about them prior to his Paris departure is just speculation. I do nto know of any intentions he had in that area.

Remember that, though I talked with Jim he was not always willing to reveal his inner feelings.

Thanks for your post.

Thank you so much Vince!! It's so nice from you to take the time to answer everyones questions. An other cool guy who take his time to speak/meet his "fans" is John Densmore.
I recently meet John Densmore in Montréal (he was performing at Le National with Reza on june 17). I said meet him cause after the show John took the time to sit with audience member and sign autographs. He's so down to earth! Thanks to you both.
O.k. Vince I send you all my best,
take care!

I think that anyone who meets John will be impressed with his sincerity and his good will. He is a real gentleman and understand people.

John has had a couple of bad times and I can say that I am glad he has a lot of peace and joy in his life now.

I think John is more accessable that Ray or Robby. I assure you that if you get to either or both of these guys, you will find them quite accommodating as well.
