John Densmore, the Doors drummer, is amazed by the fact that he’s asked for autographs wherever he goes these days — mainly by fifteen-year-olds far too young to have ever heard the band perform. “About three years ago, my nieces in Boston — who were about thirteen — told me that their classmates were into the Doors,” says Densmore. “It isn’t like it stopped for ten years, but in the last few years, it’s a big business again.” In fact, some of Densmore’s friends have begun asking him to sign their old Doors records. As one told him: “Shit, your guys are famous again.”
