"October 6th, 1967 I saw The Doors at Cal State L.A. Yes I met Jim Morrison but the story isn't flattering to either of us! The show was in a Gymnasium. We went behind the gym and there was Jim, talking to someone! I had been to two of his shows before this one, I had a camera with me with a flash. I got about a foot or two away and took several flash photos of him, probably blinding him! He finally turned and yelled at me and cussed me out. I don't recall the exact words. He did seem a bit drunk. Then I had the gall to answer him that I had bought his album and paid to see him and he should treat his fans better! I'm cringing to think about how rude I was. Anyway we stomped off and went back inside to our seats in the bleachers. I took a few more photos and needed to change the film in my camera. AND I DROPPED THE ROLL OF FILM!!!!! It fell to the floor under the bleachers. After the concert we hung around to look for it. But they wouldn't let us. They told us to come back the next day. We did that but the janitor said it never turned up so we got permission to go through all the trash from the previous night actually, probably the previous week! We spent at least an hour digging through all their trash but never found it!"
