Ray Manzarek , Keyboardist of the world famous Doors, dead at 74.

Dude was a hell of a musician, R.I.P.

I'm a huge fan of The Doors.

I was sad to learn about this.

His haunting keyboards along with Jim's voice were the heart & soul of their music.

RIP

What about Windows 7?

I've always thought the Doors were overrated, myself. But there do have a couple of really good songs.

Windows 7?  Windows 7 is a god compared to the Doors.

The Doors bore me.  The music isn't all that good, the lyrics pretty much suck and the vocals sound awful.  They're just another band people like because they're supposed to.

I give the Doors alot of credit, they were very influential, and ahead of their time. While everyone else at the time was singing about peace, love, and all that, they werent afraid to keep it real.

They did some covers, sure, but thats not the same as stealing. What songs do you think they stole? And if you say the Kinks im gonna shoot you, All of the Day and All of the Night sounds nothing like Hello I love you, I dont care what a court of law says!!

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, heh.    And it's not like they were the only ones that did it.  A lot of the 'most awesome bands evah' made their mark with other people's talent - Zeppelin being the worst.

I don't consider the Doors to be all that bad, I just don't care for most of their stuff. I agree that Riders on the Storm is decent enough, though I prefer the Hammerfall song with the same name.

This thread gave me an idea. We should do a yearly list of all the celebrities Mad_Jacks kills. Just so we can keep track of his murder rate.

Hmmm... maybe. I've been pretty busy lately, but I'm thinking in a few weeks... or maybe next week, I'll take some time off. Maybe I'll do it then. Should I do one to show how many celebs MJ has killed so far this year only? Or should it be one that shows a few years? How many years?

Thats actually not a bad idea, I thought of just makin a dead celebrites thread and filing this in there, with your guys talk of the Tavern being too cluttered with threads and whatnot, but this is Ray Manzarek we're talking about here! He definitley deserves his own thread!!


Hey, you're this dog, I'm just holding the tail!



OMG thats the funniest thing ive read on the internet all night!! Made me shoot pepsi outa my nose!!

And really I cant believe theres not more Doors fans up in here. The Doors are easily the greatest American Rock-n-Roll band in the history of American rock-n-roll music! Hell, the world even!!!

I mean how can you listen to something like

and not like it!? I love that guitar, its just sounds so haunting! 

The Doors rule!!!!

Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and Jerry Lee Lewis are the greatest American rock & roll band. And I don't even like Elvis. Pick one as the greatest American rock artist and call it a day, bro.

Whateves man, Say what you will, but the Doors were just as good, if not better, than any of the ones you mentioned, and I wouldnt count Elvis or Cash as rock music anyways, and Jerry is a little iffy.

But regardless, whatever your opinion of the Doors is, you cant deny that Ray Manzarek was one hell of a musician, Some people claim that the Doors had no bass player, but thats just not true, Ray played keyboard bass with his left hand, while playing the organ with his right, that takes some serious talent.

So... He played piano with his left hand, and fapped with his right?

That does take talent!

I'd like to see a few years myself.  Thing is, there's no reason to waste your time with it.  We have a few students in that thing that would be so totally cool if it were real but it so totally isn't and one of them is very new.  He contributes nothing to society since he's basically a giant parasite so why not make him give back?  As an initiation rite, I propose that Gigi Jr be placed in charge of the data collection, interpretation and presentation.

The Doors rule!!!! stole a lot of stuff from people that had more talent and then ruined it with crappy music and terrible vocal work.

John Candy is also dead - which does make him the best kind of Canadian.  ;)  Kittie is pretty good, though.

Great.  Now you admit to not only being a parasite but to being stupid as well. 



If you insist...



I do.  However, there's nothing compelling you to do so as of yet.  No OTTer has seconded the motion (though I'm sure they will now).  Still, it seems as though you may have some time.  I suggest you PM every OTTer you can asking them to refuse to support my motion.  It just may work.

Yeah, begging validation is so appealing. 



No, I didn't. Just like you didn't play KotOR.



You should.  Trust me.  And I didn't need to play it.  I've been exposed to Star Bores crap before and if I can't handle the crappy source material why would I wanna game in an environment that uses it?

Nope.  I've found my 'old man limit', I think.  As we age we adopt technology as it advances and then get to a point where 'getting it' just isn't worth it.  Web videos are a waste of 'net time.  Er, the one that aren't of a certain specific type anyway.


Well, you certainly don't, since you've never tried KotOR.



It's a fact that SB is inherently inferior to anything Trek - including Enterprise and yes, Enterprise is awful.  This is like one of them rules or whatever: An object in motion tends to stay in motion, anything Star Bores is inherently inferior to anything Star Trek.  I'm sure I read that in some sort of textbook.
