Expertise

All areas of the bands music and lyrics and the band`s history. I also like to delve into the movie and examine how and why it all went wrong.

Experience in the area

I have been a true dedicated fan for many years now, I am a collector in rare Doors memorobilia. I also have a web site, www.wastingthedawn.com, and all content is from my personal collection. It has won the Legacy Link Award for Excellence, Golden Web Award, Site of the Week from Dotmusic.com and has been shortlisted for the Peoples Choice Award each year since 2001. It is also included in the BBC Best Of The Web.

What do you like about this subject?

The Doors are unique and timeless, through their music our passions can enjoy themselves...
