The Doors headline Bill Graham's new Fillmore East, formerly the Village Theatre which opened on March 8th. The Doors do four performances in the two days and sell out the 2,500-seat auditorium at $5.00 a piece each show. The concerts are spectacular and some of the band's all-time best! The band does the entire "Celebration of The Lizard" mesmerizing crowds and The Doors receive stellar reviews. In the early show on Friday, giving his all and extremely stoned, Jim falls into the lighting pit! Later during the same performance, Jim introduces the New York premiere of The Unknown Soldier by pretending to be a college professor and asking the "class" to pay close attention to the movie because afterward there will be an exam. After the movie they play "The Unknown Soldier" followed by what is possibly the first full length rendition of "The Celebration of The Lizard". In the late show on Friday, The Doors open with "When The Music's Over" in which Jim, seemingly absent, comes flying over the drum kit and leaping down in front of the microphone just in time to scream the opening and signals the beginning of what is to be a totally outstanding show. In the early show on Saturday, the audiences on their way to the Fillmore has picked a considerable number of daffodils and throughout the show they are flung onto the stage. Jim picks some up and methodically places a few on each members instrument and between songs seemingly picks on John by placing many on his drums and under his nose in an attempt to get him going. In the opening number of the second show on Saturday, Jim holds onto the rising curtain to the point of maximum safe height and even a little more before letting go at the very last second soaring down right in front of the microphone in perfect timing to open the show with his characteristic introductory scream. The band plays The Unknown Soldier and follows it up with live performances of the song during each show this evening and do "Celebration" again during the late show. After Saturday’s late show The Doors are in such a good mood, they tell Bill Graham they want to do another encore. Graham comes out on stage as the audience is filing out and asks them if they want some more, which they graciously accept, and the band ends up playing another entire set lasting over an hour. What a magical weekend this must have been! March 22nd & 23rd, 1968: Fillmore East, New York
