Jim & Steve McQueen meeting

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 & Steve McQueen meeting

Post by hardrockcafe »

Hi Vince,

When you chatted with Jim at the office, did he ever mention his meeting with Steve McQueen regaring a movie role?

The meeting has been mentioned in passing in a couple of biographies, but not much has surfaced.

Anyone know the movie that was considered? I think the year was circa 1969.

Until Danny can substantiate his claim in NOHGOA that an actual meeting took place between Jim and Steve I think the whole thing is made up and BS.
But since Danny is now dead I don't think we'll ever get confirmation of a meeting having ever taken place. Lots of BS in Danny's book, never forget it.....
