The Doors say goodbye to Bogotá

Colombia news - Riders on the Storm


The founding members of legendary 60's band The Doors, now officially known as Riders on the Storm, will attend Bogotá on their "maybe" last ever tour.

Original keyboardist Ray Manzarek and guitarist Robbie Krieger, fronted by new singer Brett Scallions will tour the world, including Bogotá, to perform the songs of the Doors for the very last time.

Krieger and Manzarek formed the Doors together with drummer John Desnmore and singer Jim Morrison in 1965 and continued to be musically active after Morrison's death in 1971.

The Doors reformed in 2002 as Riders on the Storm, following a dispute with Densmore, who wouldn't take part in the reunion, over using the original name.

The group will play Bogotá on April 28.
