The Doors at the Aquarius Theatre: July 22, 1969. "Backstage & Dangerous: The Private Rehearsal" It wasn't a 'Private Rehearsal' as that dishonestly glosses over the reason they were there the next day. This was no rehearsal. This was an attempt by Rothchild to defraud the public who had spent their hard earned cash the night before on the concert they attended. The 2 set gig was recorded with a view to releasing it as a live LP. But The Doors producer wanted to re-record last nights songs and slip them into the audience soundtrack. Of course doing so meant nothing to Elektra but fans who would treasure the concert they attended as a live release would have been robbed of what they saw replaced by Rothchild's chicanery. Thankfully Morrison was having none of it and refused to play Paul's game resulting in a useless mess ## Also it has to be questioned why the band thought a photo of Jim seemingly stomping on a tiny Robby Krieger during the March 1969 Miami concert had anything to do with the LA gigs 4 month later. A shameless attempt to show Morrison as 'dangerous' adding to the duplicity The Doors began 50 years previously. DISC ONE Approximately 51:35 Total Time
1. WE'RE ROLLING 0:08 2. I WILL NEVER BE UNTRUE 5:57 3. PEACE FROG [INSTRUMENTAL] 2:50 4. BLUE SUNDAY 4:09 5. MAGGIE McGILL 4:48 6. ARRANGING (YOU NEED MEAT) DON'T GO NO FURTHER 1:16 7.

An Excerpt From Bruce Botnick's Notes: The day after our two shows, Paul Rothchild decided that it would be a good idea, since we were already setup from the previous nights concert, to record without an audience with the hope that we could get some great performances and cut them into the live takes. This was a recording procedure that Jac Holzman came up with years earlier and used to great effect. Not to be dishonest but to try and give the best performance to the record buying public. The idea being that if the live performance wasn't up to snuff, a version was recorded later without the audience, in the same venue and would be cut in from just after the first note to the last note, leaving the applause. It worked if you were disciplined, The Doors weren't. Never could toe the line. So why Dangerous? The best plans of mice and men go down in the sea in ships. Our ship never got out of harbour and our captain and his fellow shipmates proceeded to rehearse, talk, cajole and for a little intellectual fun verbally tear down the corporate establishment that was the record company. ### "not to be dishonest Bruce?" But of course it was dishonest cheating an audience of the concert they attended by faking the set the next day after they had gone home. A cut and paste Rothchild special was one thing such as AL but to present an audience with a fraudulent live concert recorded the next day sans audience was so dishonest you both should have gotten jail time.A couple of more recent covers for BS&D. The Jim Miami stomp has made it's way to the front cover on one of them. As if there were no decent photos from the actual gig to be the cover. Of course that would not do for the Dangerous element of the title.![https://i.postimg.cc/fyfsrpVg/1.jpg](https://i.postimg.cc/fyfsrpVg/1.jpg) ![https://i.postimg.cc/FFyhzdTg/2.jpg](https://i.postimg.cc/FFyhzdTg/2.jpg)

Nobody try and push anybody. Ray: At some point we can go (Ray imitates playing really fast and panting) John: No.. slow, Ray.. Well if this is going to be for ah.. for an album. The live album? Ray: This IS the live album. (laughter) I mean, if it is they're not going to blip the fucks and shits out are they? Jim: Well someone's gotta do it man. Ray: This is.. Oh.. They can blip 'em though. It's even better if you can blip 'em. You know. ?? Ray: Well. That's all right. Don't worry about it. Jim: When I hear a "fuck" I see dollar signs flash above my eyebrows. Depends what business you're in. Jim: Business is business. Let's take care of business. Ah, are you recording.. Bob? She's been rollin' steady. Ray: Okay.. this terminates the contract. Hey, Jim. Are you singing. I don't know. Let me ask him. Hey..
(Robby starts playing slow blues riff)
Freeform Blues
I live.. uptown. Downtown. All around.
I had some money. I had none. Never been so low.. that I.. couldn't leave town. I'm a Changelin', yeah. Come on an.. watch me.. change.
Crosses by my window like da waves down on.. da beach. Crosses by my window like da waves down on da beach. Got dis girl beside me but she's.. ohhh.. outta reach.
Dogs a' roamin' in da.. cruel.. mornin' yard. Dogs out 'dere roamin' in da cruel.. mornin' yard. To lose your love and keep her, well that's.. mmmmore than hard.
The woman is a devil. That's what I.. been told. Devil is a woman, yeah. That's how the old story goes. Take all your money. Then she'll steel all your gold.
(guitar solo)
Well I sought a new life so I.. Bought me a wife and a new car. Crossed the boarder, went down ta.. Juarez, Tijuana.. Mexico. Lost my baybeh. Lost my money and my name.
I wish I could get outta this trip 'n get back ta civilization.
(extended guitar solo)
Sometimes when I'm sad. I buy a bottle and I drink myself to sleep. Whisky's like a woman, yeah. She's good when she's cheap. Miss my baybeh. But more than that I miss my.. bottle a' wine.
(extended guitar solo)
In too many ways a man can go. One leads to money and the other leads to soul. Money beats soul. Money beats soul.. every time. Hard fact a' life boy, but the.. Money beats your soul every time. Ain't it the truth now.
(song ends) (tape cuts out/back in with Ray playing and with John playing high hat) (Jim starts talking)
Morrison Random Musings
All deserters will be shot.. at five o'clock tomorrow morning. So get yer-selves together. And quit messing around. No more nonsense.
(band stops playing) (Jim continues talking)
The assassination occurred at three-thirty. No one was there to witness it.
(Ray plays "church-like" organ notes)
Even the breviaries had left their tapestries on the window. And we were all silenced.. by the sad, mildewed cloud that followed around. (Jim sings) Ahhhhhahuhhhhhhh. I wish I was back in the land of the.. Of the.. Of the.. I wish I was back.. Innnnnnn.. I wish.. Ahhhmmmmmm
(Jim continues talking)
You can't pin that one on me. I didn't do a god-damn thing. I was just standing there. And a bunch a' guys came up an started laying all of this shit on me. Now what am I supposed to do. I'm an American. You can't touch me.
Did you know all nuns are forty-two? And their eyes are blue? Did you know all tablecloths are white in France? Did you know women wear underpants? Well they do. (John: Wait a minute I got..) How does a musician imitate the sound of underpants sliding over a woman's thighs, down over her ankles, and over her little toes, and the rings on her toes, and her unclipped.. toenails.
Lightning struck.. the magic.. purse. And the horse ran away with the spoon. Ooo. I wish I was on the moon, too.
I didn't do a damn thing, man. I was just standin' there in front of the delicatessen. And all these.. Rabbis ran up 'n a bunch 'a Indians 'n freaks 'n monsters 'n ..just.. started.. talkin' in all these.. weird languages. What oo..-w-what could I say?
(Jim sings)
I want to go back where I came from. Back were everything's just diddly-dumb, alright.
(Jim talks)
Hey! I'm tired of being a freaky.. musician. I want to be Napoleon. Let's have some more wars around here. What a stinking, shitty little war we have.. running over there. Let's get a big one. A real big one. With a lot of.. killings and bombs and blood. Like..
(Jim sings and plays tambourine)
Sc-hool days. School days. Good old.. fashioned rule days. School days. School days. Good old fashioned rule days.
