Strange Days: The American Media Debates The Doors, 1966-1971 Maximillian F. Grascher 2 Introduction Throughout the course of American history, there have been several prominent social and political revolutions carried out by citizens dissatisfied with the existing American institutions run by the government and its civil servants. Of these revolutions, Vietnam War and civil rights protest among youth in the 1960s was of the most influential, shaping American society in the decades to come. With US involvement in Vietnam escalating and the call for African-American civil rights becoming more insistent by the year, thousands of America’s youth took to the streets to protest the country’s foreign and domestic policies and to challenge the US government, much to the anger of America’s older generations. Artists played a critical role in the unrest, including musicians who encouraged a reformation of American society’s established norms through revolution.

  • Celebration of the 1St Doors Album
    The Doors Experience: Celebration of the 1st Doors Album Dieser Tage feiert das legendäre Debütalbum "The Doors" seinen 40. Geburtstag! Das Werk der gleichnamigen Kultband um Jim Morrison enthält Hits wie Light My Fire, den Brecht- Klassiker Alabama Song, Break On Through und das rund zwölfminütige Meisteropus The End, das auch heute noch wegen seiner von Morrison künstlerisch inszenierten ödipalen Fantasien für Aufsehen sorgt. Die österreichische Tribute-Band "The Doors Experience" bringt seit mittlerweile über sechs Jahren erfolgreich die Musik von Jim Morrison und den Doors auf europäische Bühnen - verbunden mit einer erstklassigen Live-Show. Maßgeblich an der überzeugenden Performance beteiligt ist Frontman & Bandleader Jason "Jim" Boiler, der Jim Morrison in Gestik, Stimme, Optik und Charisma um nichts nachsteht. Natürlich inszenieren The Doors Experience das runde Jubiläum des Doors Debüt-Albums für ihre Fans in gebührender Weise: Neben vielen weiteren Doors-Klassikern aus dem Repertoire - wie L. A. Woman, People Are Strange, Riders On The Storm, Roadhouse Blues oder Touch Me - wird nun bei ausgewählten Shows das gesamte erste Album in Original-Reihenfolge gespielt. Premiere hat dieses Sonderprogramm am 26. Jänner im Planet Music Vienna. Die nächsten Shows führen The Doors Experience durch Österreich, Deutschland, Kroatien und die Schweiz. Alle Details dazu gibt's auf www.thedoors.at und http://www.thedoors.at/info/index.htm Line-up: Jason "Jim" Boiler - Lead Vocals Klaus Bergmaier - Organ, Piano, Backing Vocals René Galik - Guitars Martin Plangl - Bass Christoph Zauchinger - Drums V.l.n.r.: Christoph Zauchinger, Martin Plangl, Jason „Jim“ Boiler, Klaus Bergmaier, René Galik Foto-download in Druckqualität: http://www.thedoors.at/band/fotos/pressefotos/thedoorsexperience_psycic0.JPG Konzerttermine: Freitag, 26.

  • Experience the Ultimate Doors Tribute Show
    Is Everybody In? Experience the Ultimate Doors Tribute Show... The Doors have captured the imagination of every generation since their songs flew to the top of the charts in 1967 and the world was first introduced to their unique sound and charismatic front man, Jim Morrison. Hit songs such as “Light My Fire”, “Break On Through”, and “Riders on The Storm” remain in heavy rotation on the radio today. Their hit songs, however, provide only a glimpse of who The Doors were. A live Doors show combined elements of rock, blues, jazz, psychedelia, poetry, shamanism, and live theatre, treating audiences to a glimpse of ‘The Other Side’. The American Night, from Seattle Washington, recreates the energy, myth and experience of a live Doors concert. At an American Night show, the audience steps back in time to an evening of music, poetic drama, and the unexpected. The show unfolds before the eyes of the audience who imagine they are witnessing a legendary Doors performance. The night feels surreal. “When will this dream stop?” the audience asks. Unlike some Doors tribute shows, which focus entirely on the part of Jim Morrison, The American Night is a complete Doors tribute experience. Audiences are captivated by The American Night’s attention to detail and realism, using original vintage instruments to tap into the vibe of a live Doors concert. The musicians of the Night share a special bond with the music as lifelong Doors fans. The American Night is available to entertain at your club, venue, or special event.
