The Doors: 1968
The Doors played the Minneapolis Auditorium on November 10, 1968.
The opening act was Midwest Hydraulic Company.
Reports are that Jim Morrison drank “numerous Hamm’s beers from 16oz. cans on stage” and then “puked onstage behind the guitar amps during an instrumental section.”
Burton Cummings of the Guess Who, via Facebook:
I was actually at this show in Minneapolis in November of ’68…seven of us drove in two cars, 500 miles from Winnipeg in the winter to see the Doors live. We were up in the balcony, but it was still an event to remember. Very, very loud, even up where we were. Jim’s screams were deafening. Tony Glover played some harp, but true Doors fans couldn’t have cared less about Tony Glover. Jim swore a lot, really foul mouthed that night, we’d never heard that kind of language out in the open in a huge crowd before. They didn’t play that long, but it was pretty hypnotic at times…highlight…actually being there for “When The Music’s Over” live…about twenty minutes worth of history…
TONY GLOVER IS A DOOR FOR A DAY
Local musician and DJ Tony Glover was invited to join them on harmonica – he is seen in the photos below.
