A Doors Concert Once Got So out of Hand Jim Morrison Was Arrested on Stage
- by Joel Kananen

One of the most iconic, and tragically short, music careers in history belonged to Jim Morrison. Morrison was the lead singer of the popular band The Doors from 1965 to his death in 1971. During that time, Morrison and The Doors were one of the most popular bands of the era and created a legacy that lasts to this day.
Part of that legacy was the free-spirited and defiant attitude of Morrison. This attitude resulted in a deep distrust of authority and government, including the police. Morrison’s dislike for the police was somewhat proven right, as the rock star was once arrested while performing on stage.
