That guy was so terrible, I don't know how he ever got the job. But they've moved past him and now they've got Dave Brock. I don't think Eddie Vedder could do as good of a job as Dave Brock, at least when it comes to imitating Jim.
The problem was they became associated with having well known singers such as Astbury, Vedder, Cornell and Weiland fronting them for a song or a show etc and it became something of a come-down when they used far lesser known artists. But it does make sense, to use actual Jim Morrison impersonators as the artist is completely focused on copying the actual singer, than just standing in for him.
