	Celebration of the Lizard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Celebration of the Lizard is an epic performance piece written by Jim Morrison, the late frontman of the rock and roll group The Doors.
		Composed as a poem, the piece includes musical sections and passages of allegorical storytelling.The poem was supposed to be a full side of a vinyl record or album, but the other members of the band thought that the extended poetic sections and overall length of the piece made a complete recording impossible.
		At the band's live shows, "Celebration" was often performed in its entirety, and was a staple of the Doors' concerts.

		Eight months after the celebration of the nuptials between Captain Blifil and Miss Bridget Allworthy, a young lady of great beauty, merit, and fortune, was Miss Bridget, by reason of a fright, delivered of a fine boy.
		I think that hardly less immoral than the lubricity of literature, and its celebration of the monkey and the goat in us, is the spectacle such criticism affords of the tigerish play of satire.

	Music Essay
		Despite Jim's desires and efforts to make it work, Celebration of the Lizard was never released on a studio-recorded album, only as a live recording from one of their many concerts (on the album Absolutely Live).
		Celebration of the Lizard consists of seven different segments--Lions in The Street, Wake Up, A Little Game, The Hill Dwellers, Not To Touch The Earth, Names Of The Kingdom, and The Palace of Exile--some of which tie into each other, and some of which are not connected other than the musical transition.
		The recording I have heard of Celebration of the Lizard begins with Jim setting the scene for the audience, as he often used to do in the studio with his band-mates.

	Glimpses book review by Michael Fiorella (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		There’s no denying that one of the deciding factors in scrapping Celebration was Morrison’s heavy drinking in and out of the studio.
		For the most part, Shiner did his homework on the Celebration segment, but as Shackleford guides The Doors into producing the album, Orange County Suite, another Morrison song that was rejected about the same time is never mentioned, which would have earned the author an A++ for trivia completeness.
		Sadly for Doors fans, the Celebration is neither as lengthy, in-depth or sympathetic as the Brian Wilson/Jimi Hendrix segments.

	Acid Nirvana: The Celebration of the Lizard
		Doors successfully began undertaking more ambitious musical projects, such as "The Celebration of the Lizard," a half-hour fusion of music, drama and poetry that left crowds stunned into utter silence by its conclusion.
		Concert hall floors were routinely littered with discarded clothes at the end of a concert, which in turn brought the band under increasing scrutiny by promoters and local authorities.
		I have lived off the American Prayer for a long long time and I all I have for the Lizard King is respect.

	DVD Times - The Doors (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Celebration Of The Lizard was a long poem; broken into separate pieces, detailing the power that Morrison has as he awakes in a dusty, mysterious city, and who becomes possessed by the lizard.
		What followed Miami were a succession of cancelled shows, Morrison breaking down and the eventual retreat into the studio to record Morrison Hotel/Hard Rock Cafe and LA Woman, then finally onto Paris to recover, get away from the madness and embrace his own death in an apartment he and Pamela were renting.
		As with all celebrity deaths, it was reputedly mishandled so, as with Elvis after him, stories quickly sprung up that Morrison was, in fact, still alive.

		Some of the spots where slides are triggered are so inaccessible that they’re bombed by helicopter, and the surface lift at the top of Lizard Bowl falls prey to slides enough that it consists of nothing but fixed hooks on a big cable.
		The Lizard Range has always been a hotbed for dedicated backcountry riders, and already there’s talk of the good old days when Currie Bowl was a short hike out of bounds and everyone riding there had a familiar face.
		Try as I might, I couldn’t track down the reason why these mountains were dubbed the Lizard Range, although the most popular guess was that the serrated ridgeline of the range resembled some sort of big reptile.
