Of course it is, trust me, I'm a HUGE Morrison fan, but I'm also a huge fan of the Cult. Bottom line is, this is as close as it comes to the real thing now - I can sit back and play armchair critic or I can go enjoy what should be a good rock show.

People are too worried about the legacy sometimes - Jim wanted the Doors to keep playing without him - I don't think he even realized how important he was to their sound & direction.
