Tribute act The Doors Alive recreates a classic Doors concert with 'Light My Fire', 'Riders On The Storm' and 'The End'.
The Doors Alive play The Live Rooms in Chester on Saturday 6 March 2027, in Room L1. They're a tribute to The Doors, the 1960s Californian band, and they've built their whole act around recreating a Doors concert from that era.
It's not just about the songs. They use the same vintage gear the original band played: a Rhodes Piano Bass, a Gibson G101 organ, a Gibson SG, and a Ludwig drum kit. The set favours authentic improvisation over a rigid playlist, so it's less of a sequence of hits and more of a live performance that lets the songs stretch. They'll work through classics like 'Light My Fire', 'When The Music's Over', 'Riders On The Storm' and 'The End'.
Behind the front is Mike Griffioen as Jim Morrison, with Barrington Meyer on guitar, Buzz Allan on drums and Norbert Varga on keyboards. The band formed in 2005 and have played more than 1,000 shows worldwide, from the Isle of Wight Festival to an arena crowd of 4,500 in Chile, with national television appearances in France and Lebanon. They describe themselves as the number one tribute to the band, and they set out to recreate the sound, look, presence and magic of an original Doors concert.
