I have some very personal Doors-related issues

Doors' Krieger and Manzarek set Rock Hall, HOB gigs

Doors members Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek are set to drop by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum for a reception at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 24, to mark the opening of "Break on Through: The Lasting Legacy of the Doors," a new exhibit devoted to the classic-rock band. The event is open to museum members, who can make a reservation by calling XXX-XXX-XXXX. [Number omitted because I am not willing to give the Rock Hall more "free publicity" than I alredy am with this post -- even if this is just a blog that nobody reads.]

From there, guitarist Krieger and keyboardist Manzarek zip over to House of Blues for an 8 p.m. concert of Doors music by their new band, Riders on the Storm, featuring ex-Fuel vocalist Brett Scallions. Tickets are $28-$200 at the HOB box office, or charge by phone.

Problems that I have with this:

(1) The Rock Hall now has a "special" Doors exhibit, after it's had a permanent Jim Morrison exhibit for 12 years. (I know that Cub Scout uniform has been hanging there for as long as I can remember.) The history and ongoing evolution of rock and roll is rich territory to mine; surely they can present something totally new?

(2) The Rock Hall's "special" Doors exhibit is titled, "Break on Through: The Lasting Legacy of the Doors." Love the curators though I do, the Rock Hall has such a lame template for exhibit/program naming:

"Popular Song Title Here: The Life and Legacy of Band or Musician Who Wrote Aforementioned Popular Song"

Other examples of this issue: "Revolution Rock: The Story of the Clash." "Hard Travelin': The Life and Legacy of Woody Guthrie." "In the Name of Love: Two Decades of U2." "Catch A Wave: The Beach Boys, the Early Years." I think you get my point.

(3) Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek have sunk so low that they have named their new band "Riders on the Storm," which is a worse name than that of probably 95% of the Doors tribute bands out there.

(4) The most expensive ticket for the House of Blues show is $200! $200!! Because I measure prices in number of drinks at the bar (for less expensive items) or cost of an airline ticket to Australia (for more expensive items), let me just say that you could get from Cleveland to Sydney for less than it would take to get you and three "Touch Me" fans through the House of Blues door that night.

I'm just saying.
