I learnt how to do the Go Go by being back stage with the Whisky Agogo cage dancers ..they got me little Boots and plastic bag costumes..not one thing
Break on through 😀
Pelo visto tem um brasileiro na foto ali em, sucesso pra vocês 👏
You guys could probably book a week straight there and get solid attendance every single night.
Dennis was great, and is an awesome showman! Your son was also great on stage Robby! Your whole band is Top Notch! Glad I was able to come out from Rockford Illinois! You guys rock!!!!
Who are the others with Quiad ? I know it is Kreiger ....but the other 2 ?

Saw Dennis do an excellent cover of light 💡 my 🔥 w/ Robbie 3 yrs ago in Montclair, Ca.
Love you Robby! I had the good fortune to meet you at the The Stone Pony many years ago with Waylon singing. You are a class act, top notch musician and human ❤️✊
Imagine that! My favorite people all friends... I love Dennis and I love Robbie.
Robby Krieger is the star
Robbyyyy, Edddd... you two are just so cool ❤️
Robbie Krieger was my first guitar hero.
Do it Robby, DO IT!!
Great pictures Robby. I remember when Dennis came out and played with you at one of the Krieger/Medlock tournaments. He’s Awesome. Hoping to see you soon. 😊

l wanna be Ross Seiffert
Would you play this Big Sitar? 😎
#robbykrieger #thedoors #sitar
It’s called a Sitar for a reason. Try sitting down to play it!…
Perfect complement to Ray's haunted carnival organ!
Play THE END intro with it
It’s deep and wide, Robby
“How high are you?” “Yes.”
I bought a sitar back from India in 1992 and as there was no internet could never figure out how to tune it let alone play it 🤣
Comedic. Need super long arms
Whoa! Do you say, "Excuse me while I whip this out." 😁 Groovy tune, groovy jacket.💪
My arms ain't long enough!
and I thought this was big lol
Stick with a six string, maybe, because, as Yogi would say, you’re “pretty good” with one of those. Countless others might concur with me.
What would Ravi Shankar say?
Un solo para Riders on The Storm
Gotta sit Robbie
What tune is it? Sounds spooky, like Jim is waiting in the wings.
Your chummy in the car...
Funny that’s an armful
Superb , now where’s the arm extensions or have you been growing 4 more arms and hands . Robby the sitar Buddha I’ll sit on the ground and meditate for the sounds I know will be grand . Peace love and free to play as you please , would Jim pop back and get down on one knee , assist in the sounds that set you free . Tell all the people that you see follow me follow me down .
imagine the Riders On The Storm solo on that! <3
That must have been built for a guy with abnormally long arms... 😁
No, but I would watch you play it
If it's a see tar then, it's a gee.tar
Thank you for so much outstanding music. IMO, The Beatles are the only other band who played so many different styles of music so well.
Yes, I can step in on keyboards
You gotta play us something!!!

Wow. I was 8 years old when you performed at the Whiskey A Go Go 60 years ago. I first heard The Doors Music when I was 12 years old during a power outage. The song I heard on the radio in the dark was, "Riders On The Storm." What an Eerie song to hear. Loved it. I have loved The Doors songs ever since then. Thank you Robby for the Amazing Music. 🙂🙋♀️🎵🎤🎶🎸🎹🥁💜
I saw the fifth show at the whiskey last year. Want a bucket list never thought I’d see the doors. At least the last one standing awesome event thank you Robbie share the moment.
You played the year I was born,1966
Let it roll baby roll
You're leaving this guy out youtu.be/v08Y5IHaxDY?is=rxdMCewBg8Ywqs66
The frequency of angels is an exfoliating sound life must experience!
It was the best night ever I had so much fun. I couldn’t stop dancing and drinking champagne even though I stood up all night I didn’t care.
What an amazing grace and sweet return! I know you had a fabulous and groovy time! Wish I could have been there. TN is a bit far away lol!
Love this!!! Wish I could have been there!!! I miss you guys and all your incredible talent. Keep Rockin!!!
Ok, I saw the pictures last night and didn’t realize Dennis Quaid PLAYED with you!! I already loved him (and The Doors of course!) but now knowing that he played with you I don’t even know what to say!!! I wish I was there! I probably would have cried!
was Densmore on drums. ? he's still alive. Robby was great, cool cat. glad he can still do it. we did a lot of doors in my band. Our lead guitarist kinda resembled him. He was a big fan.
Rock on Robbie. 🎸 ✌️
Playing his music right now❤️
Still got it
I don’t see Frank Wagner. That’s the reunion the world needs
cool shots
Hey Robby! So great to hear about it. We wish we were there. Maybe we will be at the 65th!
Nice set list
Sensacional ver o músico com a camisa do Corinthians 😃
Awesome!!!
Great set list!!!
Absolutely fantastic. Hats off....
Excelente
It was an incredible event!
Awesomesauce!!
I love hearing which songs connect with you the most. What’s your favorite one to hear me play live?

L.A Woman I danced like a maniac at the 60th at the Whiskey.
Riders on the storm is going to be played on my funeral .
when you inject The Sound of Music and The Beatles into LMF solo.
All, duh.😁 But if going long and loud, LA Woman.💪
Never had the pleasure to see you live, but The End always brings me back to sitting in a dorm room with friends. Also, watched a video yesterday of you playing Maggie M'Gill, still in shock seeing you play a Tele. Now here's a pic of another one. I've never seen anything but an SG.
I have never seen you play live but I’d love to see you rock Roadhouse Blues or LA Woman 👩🏻 or Peace ✌️ Frog 🐸 or Light my Fire or Riders on the Storm ⛈️
SPANISH CARAVAN !!! That is THE Robby Krieger song of songs. Followed closely by LIGHT MY FIRE of course. It's just there is some guitar parts in Spaniah Caravan that create an indescribable feeling, like some primal communication transmitted directly to my DNA.
I dug the Doors since the first album. But the one that really blew me away was Morrison Hotel and Road House Blues. The production was awesome
Break on through to the other side we dug out beggers here we dug up treasures there try to run try to hide break on through to the other side
If I say My Wild Love will you hit me ? 😳
Robby reaching for a strat??
When the musics over will be my funeral song
When the music’s over live, always different solos
Watched you as The Doors in the 21st Century and your long extended versions of Light My Fire and Riders On The Storm were just sublime 🌞
The only time that I saw you was in 1972, in Fresno, California, for an event to help register 18yo's to vote. It was at Radcliffe Stadium, after Jim had left. I've always loved, "Break on Through to the Other Side". I always loved your flamenco style of guitar work. And just the way you fill in, with your licks.
Man… I love it all… the carnival Leslie organ fender Rhodes bass … the jazz Bosa nova beats slide guitar, traditional open string picking, finger picking … Jim’s casting spells…. Greatest band ever! The depth of the lyrics !!!! 🔥🔥🔥❤️Break on Through a song that defines the band & their statement and will never be dated!
LA Woman, Roadhouse, The End, Love Her Madly, the list goes on and on. There was so much Guitar mastery on Doors albums and live shows. You Sir are a gem. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
Wishful Sinful is a fun one. I used to cover it in New Brunswick, NJ in the '90s with a female vocalist
The Crystal ship, wintertime love, shaman blues, I mean, bunch stuff to mention... thanks a lot btw...
Your solo work deserves a lot more recognition than it gets. I'm going to have to say Out of the Mood, Snake Oil, and Psychedelicate.
Bottleneck solos on Wild Child!
The middle break in 5 to 1 with the same tone and set up as Live in Detroit. Best tone ever.
I am a big fan of Universal Mind, I would love to hear the story behind that song. Why wa only played live?
There is so much good Doors music, it is hard to pick one. But if I had to, I would go with Riders On The Storm. It was this song and the passing of Jim Morrison, the first got really interested in The Doors music.
The End and Break on through, as those were the last two songs my late sister heard in her lifetime.
Robert Alan Krieger, born January 8, 1946, in Los Angeles, is a musical performer and The Doors guitarist. He attended UCLA. “The first music I heard that I liked was Peter and the Wolf. I accidentally sat and broke the record (I was about seven). Then I listened to rock ‘n’ roll – I listened to the radio a lot – Fats Domino, Elvis, The Platters.
“I started surfing at fourteen. There was lots of classical music in my house. My father liked march music. There was a piano at home. I studied trumpet at ten, but nothing came of it. Then I started playing blues on the piano?no lessons though. When I was seventeen, I started playing guitar. I used my friend’s guitar. I didn’t get my own until I was eighteen. It was a Mexican flamenco guitar. I took flamenco lessons for a few months. I switched around from folk to flamenco to blues to rock ‘n’ roll.
“Records got me into the blues. Some of the newer rock ‘n’ roll, such as the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. If it hadn’t been for Butterfield going electric, I probably wouldn’t have gone rock ‘n’ roll.
I didn’t plan on rock ‘n’ roll. I wanted to learn jazz; I got to know some people doing rock ‘n’ roll with jazz, and I thought I could make money playing music. In rock ‘n’ roll you can realize anything that you can in jazz or anything. There’s no limitation other than the beat. You have more freedom than you do in anything except jazz – which is dying – as far as making any money is concerned.
“In The Doors we have both musicians and poets, and both know of each other’s art, so we can effect a synthesis. In the case of Tim Buckley or Dylan you have one man’s ideas. Most groups today aren’t groups. In a true group all the members create the arrangements among themselves.”
Most people know Robby Krieger as the consummate music artist in his role as former guitar player and songwriter of the legendary band The Doors.
What shouldn’t be surprising is that creativity has no boundaries and many times artistic expression will spill over into more then one medium for the artist.
Robby Krieger is no exception as demonstrated in his creation of a collection of spectacular, never-before-seen works of art…now available to art lovers and Robby fans.
Now, through the charity services organization, ART FOR A CAUSE, limited edition, giclee prints of his beautiful paintings will, for the first time, be available to the fans of Robby Krieger.
“I hope my paintings brings joy and love to art lovers for many years to come.” – Robby Krieger
