I guess they didn't mind Fracis Ford Coppola using 'The End' in his commercialization of their product.

[GungaLaGunga]

A man very taken with his own self-importance. Figures it's the drummer.

Selling out might not be so bad. $20 million can buy a lot of cocaine and hookers to salve one's conscience.

...to honour the memory of the band’s lead singer, Jim Morrison, who died in Paris from a suspected heroin overdose...

Yes, we all want to remember a dead druggie. He didn't die from a suspected drug overdose. This fool turning down the money makes me think that drug use may still be prevalent in that group.

Densmore said that he could not sell a song to a company that was “polluting the world

What a jackass. I wonder how he gets around, on his bicycle? Bet he never flies either.

I really miss selling him guns.. What a strange guy, that Densmore. As for the 'doing nothing' gripe, the sixty-ish guys would not be making eight million on tour were it not for what happened long ago. He's already done what needs to be done to ensure they can still sell tickets.

As for selling music, the copyright on that stuff should have expired long ago. Innovation is the hallmark of this nation, and copyright issues need to be one day addressed. Otherwise we'll continue to spend nearly a half century listening to the same songs.

MEMO to the drummer (if he can read):

Jim Morrison is alive and well in Oregon!

[WorkingClassFilth]

This is really good. Boomers claiming sanctity for any product of their g-g-generation. This is really good - too good to make up. Fight the power, man! Right on!

Riders of the Storm was my favorite.

If "THE drummer" had to make a living frying french fries, he would be dead of hunger by now!

[PzLdr]

I'd certainly want to "honor the memory" of a jerk who showed up loaded for concerts, exposed himself on stage {Miami, I believe-resulting in his arrest], died of a drug overdose in Paris, and DIDN'T write the group's signature tune ["Light My Fire"-Krieger did], but never disabused fans who thought he did.

Good to see there's something of cultural value that is subject to corporatization.

[tallhappy]

What an idiot.

But I am glad to see him do it and commend him.

Those other idiots now lose their 20 million.

Nothing better than seeing people who helped damage our society like they do (and be all nostaligic and self-mythologizing about as this dunderhead is here) lose out and mess each other up.

Ha ha.

[SamAdams76]

Jim Morrison is dead...damn!

[garyhope]

You can tell a lot about Densmore's politics by checking out his predictable links here:

[buccaneer81]

Densmore is a friggin' idiot.

[Mount Athos]

He can do what he want, and thumb his nose at whoever disagrees. Freedom!
