I agree. That was seriously harsh.. If Morrison was alive today, he'd arrange a press conference, say nothing in the press conference, pour a bowl of corn flakes, piss in said corn flakes, and then throw said corn flakes at the journalists who showed up to his presser.
Back on topic: As far as Progressive rock is concerned, I'd have to say that Pink Floyd has been FAR more influential than the Doors. But at the same time, the Doors are iconic in their own way, and not just for Morrison's death, but for the millions and millions of screaming fans that didn't have a ****ing clue who the Beatles were. *rockfist*
