NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) – Here’s news that will light the fire of Jim Morrison fans: A filmmaker claims The Doors’ frontman is alive and raising horses on a ranch in southern Oregon.
Rodeo photographer Gerald Pitts insists Morrison didn’t die in July of 1971 and he has current photographs and film footage of the rocker to prove it.
Pitts, who met Morrison in 1998, says the rocker staged his death because of a French conspiracy to kill him, Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix with narcotics because they were all Vietnam war protestors.
These days, Morrison isn’t the drug user he once was, although Pitts says when he goes over to Jim’s house he’ll “maybe have an occasional beer.”
Now Pitts claims that Morrison is announcing he’s alive, in part, to promote his recent agreement to star in a rodeo shoot-out movie based on events that actually happened to Pitts.
Pitts’ whole story airs on A Current Affair tomorrow (May 20).

Was there even any French troops in Vietman then, and if so which side were they on?
Wasn't Hendrix in the US military at some point in time?
Wasn't John Kerry meeting the commie Koreans in France just around the same time for peace talks?
Why didn't they try to kill John Kerry too? Obviously he had a much larger voice against the war than these drug-addled hippies riding a trend.

Jim is living happily ever after with Andy Kaufman. They are both employed by the local taxi company.

The way it was pitched in Down On Us (aka Beyond the Doors), it was CIA who tried to kill them all. As the "Pied Pipers of Rock".
Imagine if it was shot on the budget it took to forge the National Guard memos.

Andy Kauffman is not dead. Who do you think was behind all those Elvis sightings?

Totally agree. The Doors are vastly overrated.

If he is alive, Oregon is definately his kind of place.

He only composed music for a few years with the Doors. He's been decomposing ever since.

When all else fails
We can whip the horse's eyes
And make them sleep
And cry -- The Soft Parade

Old news, Jim Morrison use to live in my apartment building in the 1980s. Wow. He must have hit a rough patch. I met him in Baton Rouge, in the summer of 1978, and he had a pretty nice house downtown.
