... but don't be surprised if that post and the entire thread gets deleted quickly by Doors management (such as they are) ... which is why it is reproduced here, a Jampol-free zone

For those of you that either seem confused as to why the VH1 Decades Rock
Live ! Tribute To The Doors, has not aired ...Here are the Facts :
The TRUTH is that John Densmore denied the Sync Licensing PERIOD The Producers were told, prior to VH1 show taping by Jampol that John Densmore would never deny the sync licensing, because if he did, he would be unreasonably withholding the ability of the Doors Music Company from doing its business. DENSMORE DENIED THE SYNC...THATS WHY VH1 IS NOT AIRING THE SHOW AT THIS TIME....WHEN THE COURT INJUNCTION CAME DOWN, THE PRODUCERS FOLLOWED ALL THE COURT ORDERS, SPENT BIG $$, CHANGING BILLBOARDS, EVEN RENAMED "D21C" TO "RIDERS" AT THE VH1 SHOW TAPING !! TO PROVE ON TAPE THAT THEY FOLLOWED ALL THE JUDGES ORDERS, SO THEY WOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS W DENSMORE...THE SYNC WAS DENIED ONLY DAYS BEFORE THE VH1 SHOW TAPING AND MILLIONS $ WERE ALREADY SPENT BY THE PRODUCERS... DENSMORE DENIED THE SYNC...THIS ISNT ABOUT AIRING A FREAKIN COMMERCIAL OR SELLING OUT ! THIS WAS A VH1 CONCERT SPECIAL, NO DIFFERENT FROM VH1 STORYTELLERS WITH SAME ARTISTS, PLUS A YOUNGER GENERATION "ANTIGONE RISING" "MACY GRAY" WHO JAMPOL SPECIFICALLY TOLD THE PRODUCERS TO HAVE ON THE SHOW, PERFORMING DOORS MUSIC, TO INFLUENCE YOUNGER FANS TO SELL MORE DOORS MERCH ! SO, THE PRODUCERS FOLLOWED JAMPOLS ADVICE.... PLUS VH1 Decades is 100% HIGHER IN PRODUCTION VALUE COMPARED TO STORYTELLERS, PLUS THE TV SPECIAL WAS TAPED IN HIGH DEF 5.1 SURROUND, THE SHOW IS HONORING THE MUSIC OF THE DOORS AS WELL AS JOHN DENSMORE !!! FEATURING A KILLER HORN SECTION, BREATHTAKING STRING ORCHESTRATIONS ON SPANISH CARAVAN, AND THE MOST AMAZING LIVE DOORS SONGS EVER PERFORMED LIVE IN A DOORS TRIBUTE, BY GRAMMMY AWARD WINNING GUESTS, PLUS A JOHN SABASTIAN 35 YEAR REUNION ON HARP, PLAYING ROADHOUSE (hes plays on orig studio version) PAT TRAVERS W SABASTIAN ROCKING ON CRAWLING KING SNAKE AND RED ROOSTER !! ITS THE MOST INCREDABLE DOORS TRIBUTE EVER PRODUCED... JOHN DENSMORE DOESNT WANT THE PUBLIC TO SEE HOW INCREDABLE THIS VH1 DOORS TRIBUTE REALLY IS ( wTY DENNIS-RAY-ROBBIE-IAN) THAT'S THE GODS HONEST TRUTH !! ANYTHING ELSE YOU HEAR IS BS ! AFTER THE PRODUCERS PROVED TO DENSMORE THAT THEY FOLLOWED THE JUDGES ORDERS 100%, DENSMORES attorney met with Producers attorney and after reviewing the facts, said John would prob reconsider and John wanted to see a copy of the VH1 Special. So the Producers, wanting to do the right thing again, personally gave John a copy of the show on DVD, so he could see how incredable the VH1 Doors Tribute really was, even offering John Exec Producer credit, and full edit rights !!! They even offered John his own VH1 Decades Special !!! THAT'S THE TRUTH ! Within 24 hours after John was given the Vh1 Decades Doors Tribute DVD, his attorney called back the Producer and said THANKS, BUT NO THANKS! ANYBODY WHO TELLS YOU ANYTHING DIFFERENT IS 1000% DISHONEST ! VH1 is not in a position to TELL YOU THE FACTS AND THE TRUTH ! THE MILLIONS OF DOORS FANS CAN THANK JOHN DENSMORE FOR SCREWING THEM OUT OF WHAT THE FANS DESERVE-- AND HOW HE IS BEING SO MEAN SPIRITED & SPITEFUL AND HURTING SO MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE AND PEOPLE ARE LOSING THERE JOBS OVER THIS, WITH FAMILIES TO FEED !! GET IT ???? AND FORCING INOOCENT PEOPLE INTO BANKRUPTSY..(Passsionte, hard working people, that he obviously could care less about....) JUST FOR DENYING A SYNC LICENSE FOR A CONCERT? COMON ! THIS ISNT A CADILLAC COMMERICAL ..ITS A VH1 CONCERT SPECIAL HONORING HIS MUSIC ! WHICH HE HAD NO PROBLEM WITH IN THE PAST !!! GET IT ? LET THE FANS SEE THE SHOW ! AND THEY CAN DECIDE ! THE SAME FANS THAT MADE DENSMORE SO WEALTHY THAT HE CAN AFFORD TO RUIN INNOCENT PEOPLES LIVES OF HIS OWN FANS THAT WERE HONORING HIS MUSIC.BY DENYING THE SYNC, YOU SHOULD KNOW HE'S PUTTING INNOCENT HARD WORKING PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF INTO BANKRUPTSY....AND DONT LET HIS FRIENDS LIKE JAMPOL MANIPULATE YOU ANY MORE ! US FANS DESERVE SO MUCH MORE THAN THE CRAP THEY ARE FEEDING US! THE TRUTH IS FINALLY REVEALED...SLEEP WELL JOHN D |
