Question Where did the Doors stay when playing their gigs in February and July of 1968? Do any of Phoenix's historic hotels claim to have had the Doors partying there?
Answer Erica.
Sorry I’m on vacation but I’ll answer this as best I know. I can not say definitively exactly where The Doors stayed in Phoenix in 1968.
I do however recall a fellow Doors expert talking about this gig to me on radio back in the 90’s. From memory he spoke a little about this event and I am sure he mentioned to me that the band all stayed at the Ritz-Carlton there. As for a party? Well anywhere Jim went there was ALWAYS a wild party, so I am sure there would have been one in Phoenix.
Otherwise for more in depth information on this I suggest you perhaps ask on the message board at www.thedoors.com Someone there might have more details
Hope this is of help and sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
