It was in a Jim Morrison biography.
Well, atleast she smacked him in the head instead of his lower area.

I don't get why people dislike Morrison so much, he just partied hard.

I adore Jim! I'm a huge Doors fan in fact, Joplin too (that's funny by the way, that story haha.). And I laugh at everything so his drunken/drugged self amused me. And the solo's were amazing.

Abusing women.

And to be fair, Jim Morrison didn't specifically target women, he abused everybody equally.

I'm just saying he's not really any different from most rock stars today, and that most likely includes some of the ones you idolize yourself.

And I don't get this whole judging musicians/singers or whatever strictly by their personality (Bono haters, you know who you are) thing... God forbid I can find a big personality flaw in every rock star that has ever lived, I can go on about how Pete Townshend is a child porn lovin' douchebag, how John Entwhistle was a closed minded jackass who was quick to call all hip hop trash and that Keith Moon was a drug pushing wifebeater... Hell I'll just go ahead and say it, if you like The Who you pretty much qualify as a bad human being.

At least going by the logic that's being used.

Which of course would be ridiculous.
If we only liked artists that had a squeaky clean lifestyle...we'd all be Cliff Richard fans.
Which of course would be equally ridiculous, not to mention obscene.


As for the drunken junkie...he made good stuff.
I like the man's music.

In fact, I would happily strangle the life out of Cliff Richards, if it meant bringing Morrison back.
And never again having to hear some twat, singing that Summer Holiday song, everytime I board a plane.
