Brian - wrt. the Sally simpson analogy, the Doors cam on after the Who, with 
Morrison up to his usual antics.... the friend I was with , being the concert 
'expert' he was at the time , insisted we "leave right now", from our 6th row 
seats. Thirty seconds later, I turend around to see a bunch of cops, flying 
chairs, and scattered "fans" , all about where we were sitting, instigated by 
Jim's stage act.... I guess there was a SS in there!

This was the concert that inspired "Sally Simpson."  Supposedly some girl
from the audience rushed up to Jim Morrison and she got thrown from the
stage for her effort.  Do you remember this?

FYI, it would have been in August 1967, exactly 30 years ago this month!
