Written by admin on December 3, 2012 – 12:38 pm -On December 5, fans of The Doors will have the opportunity to watch the band’s 1968 Hollywood Bowl gig on Facebook.
Qello, the music entertainment digital streaming service, along with Eagle Rock Entertainment, are hosting the Facebook Digital Premiere of the show, which is considered one of the band’s finest concerts captured on film.
The film has received a meticulous audio and visual upgrade, including the restoration of three previously unseen songs – “Hello, I Love You,” “The WASP (Texas Radio And The Big Beat),” and “Spanish Caravan”. Doors keyboardist, Ray Manzarek says, “The quality is stunning, mind-blowing; it’s like being there right on that Hollywood Bowl stage with me, Jim, John, and Robby.”
Tickets for the Facebook premiere cost $4.99. Tickets holders receive:
- access to watch “Live at the Bowl ’68” for 30-days
- access to participate in the *LIVE Q&A with Ray Manzarek on December 5th (immediately following the premiere) hosted by Rolling Stone editor, Ben Fong-Torres
