December 8, 2003 - As the crew heads straight to the hotel for a little rest and then on to La Scene to get ready for this evenings secret show at this small 300 person capacity club. The band was taken directly to the Pere Lachaise Cemetery where Ray, Robby & Ian were greeted by fans and press photographers. Ray & Robby at first were not going to sign any autographs when they got off the bus, but seeing the throng of fans surround them and asking for autographs they decided to spend a few minutes signing before they made there way over to Jim's grave.
Ray and Robby spent about 15 minutes at Jim's grave, looking at the many photographs and poems that covered Jim's grave. They allowed the press to photograph and videotape them as they lit candles, then took a poem from the grave, light it on fire and Ray scattered the ashes into the heavens. Then the press was asked to leave the area and Ray and Robby got to spend a few minutes alone with their good friend, Jim.

What a stupid whiny thing to say... It was A BAND and a unit of four parts. All were gifted, together they were celestial synergy. Without Jim they did not last as "The Doors" because he was the songwriter and the voice of THAT band. They all lived on to do lots more cool stuff... Why the whiny need to defend them?

And the press did leave them alone to visit their friend at the grave site for a while, before descending upon them again on their way out. It's not easy being a public figure like that. People always want a piece of you. However, that's the price of Fame. RIP Jim and Ray.

People aren't just hanging out hoping surviving Doors happen to show up. This was obviously announced in advance, even filmed. If they truly wanted privacy they would have slid in without fanfare. Plus in the description it says they asked everyone to leave and they got time alone at the gravesite at the end. Watch and enjoy.

He spend considerable time talking about it in an a most sincere way. I have video of him playing ping pong in the Gibson green room. The ball kept going under my chair, Robbie chased them all down. It was sort of weird to see a Door under my chair. LOL! He's a much better guitarist than a ping pong player...LOL!

@Gene Yuss I would agree with you. I think his common law wife, Pamela, put him there to honor him, and her memory of him, poet and thinker. All writing including the Bible you are quoting from, has the seeds of ideas from an ancient world. A ancient world where Morrison would reflect upon, including the Bible, Dante, Aquinas, Saint Augustine, Homer, Rimbaud, Artaud, Mark, Matthew, Luke, Paul, John. Sometimes society fails to recognize when some one great comes along. I wonder where in Dante’s Divine comedy your personality would fall into? Maybe Virgil could help you understand a personality like Morrison?

I was born in 1993 and was introduced to the doors when I was 16. They last played in 1970 and I heard them in 2009. Me and my friends who love the band, still wonder how can a band and an artist be so relevant decades after they last played! I mean we were a completely new generation of music lovers and here we are, still listening to the doors at get togethers. What a band. What a legend! In India we dont get to hear much about these type of bands. Those of us who have been fortunate to be introduced to this band were simply blown away. I personally was so influenced by Jim while growing up. His way of looking at things, his thought process....everything was so different and so ahead of his time. Then when you read about his life and how young he was....it adds to the mystery of Jim's personality. Looking at Jim's photo in his grave at 27, is both sad and kind of divine at the same time. He is just timeless! RIP Jim. Long live the lizard king! (Thanks RU-vid algorithm)

I was born in 2003. I first listened to The Doors when I was nine. I asked my dad to buy a walkman we saw at a flea market. He had a lot of good old casettes. I was at my grandparents house, I layed stomach-down on the floor, got a paper, got a pencil to draw something, put in the best of mix (because it looked charming, and I could mostly understand the titles- I'm from Hungary. It hooked me). I instantly fell in love. I listened to When the music's over three or four times straight. They really inspired me to play the guitar. Now I'm eighteen, still one of my favourite bands ❤️

I told him about when I'd seen them. About four months later I saw that Robbie's band was coming to our city. So I took my son and we went to the concert.

The memories are real for them. They literally were THE DOORS 🚪. It must be bitter sweet for them thinking about their time with Morrison! He was incredible and incredible to look at! So many great songs that are not as popular as their hits like Light My Fire! L.A. Woman is one of their best!

It's because Jim and the Doors members were really genuine people and masters of their art. Their music and especially Jim's lyrics touched people very deeply. Bands like The Doors will be studied in a thousand years time.

I was there Dec. 2021. and it was a beautiful sunny day. Jim's grave is a small, simple affair, much smaller than I thought it'd be. There were 3 or 4 other people there and we all exchanged greetings. As Jim was a contrarian and iconoclast I thought I'd do the same in his honor, so instead of having a beer and a smoke, I had a milk and a banana. Beyond Jim's grave Pere LaChaise is chock-a-block full of famous people from history. Chopin is buried there, and one of the workers said people - mainly Polish - still come in droves to see him and leave fresh flowers - his grave was covered in them when I was there. Edith Piaf, Modigliani, Pissaro, Seurat, Proust, Oscar Wilde - coolest grave there by far. There also several bueatiful and moving monuments to victims of war, etc. there. All told I spent about 3 hours there walking around, taking it all in. It was a wonderful experience, and very peaceful. I would strongly recommend you go and see it. From central Paris it's only about 15 minutes away and easy to get there on the subway. And it's located in a nice neighborhood, a good place to go an have a late lunch or early supper afterward and see how Parisians live.

I was on a layover in Paris as a flight attendant in april 2012. I got into my room and changed. I was on a mission. I took two trains to Pere LaChaise cemetery in search of Jim’s grave. It was hard to find but after awhile an entire group of people formed in search of the gravesite. It was raining and i bought a bumbershoot that i still have today in april 2022. It was errie because it was a misty rain and i had my iPhone playing riders on the storm. We found jim and i placed my 19 year sobriety chip on his grave. A memory of a lifetime along with crossing abbey road barefoot in London a month later. These life opportunities were never planned they just presented themselves and now are wonderful memories with pictures and videos. I am so grateful to have had the experience since i grew up in the years they were plating. I am a May 16 1956 baby

Wot aboot their spelling??? Their music and their body....... As for being 'unmatched' I think that there have been a lot of Rock Bands that have surpassed The Doors. There are some successful Rock Bands that have produced great music for 15, 20, 30, 40 years. Sure, most of those Bands have lost members a long the way, though, they've soldiered on and produced quality music. I think THE CULT are still going.......... Every now and then I'm surprised to hear that an old Band are still in existence. Red Hot Chili Peppers - established 1983. ... Metallica - established 1981. ... U2 - established 1978. ... The Cure - established 1978. ... Def Leppard - established 1977. ... Iron Maiden - established 1975. ... KISS - established 1973. ... Aerosmith - established 1970 Golden Earring, 1961 Depeche Mode B-52s Duran Duran The Fixx New Order Neil Young and Crazy Horse The Radiators ( Australia ) Midnight Oil ( Australia ) Hoodoo Gurus ( Australia ) Dig deeper and you'll find more Aussie Bands and Artists, Richard Clapton played recently, he is a Legend. I love The Doors work from 1966-1971, in fact Riders on the Storm is in my Top 10 songs. I also love 30 of STATUS QUO's 33 studio albums.
