(jam) As we reported earlier, The Doors are reuniting with a new singer and drummer. Ian Astbury is taking the singing role and Stewart Copeland (Police) will take on the drums.

'Well I assume we have John's blessings as far ... ,' Manzarek said. 'You know, John's got bad ears and he's got tinnitus and can't play this loud rock 'n' roll stuff and blow his brains out if he tried to, it'd just be too loud for him. So, John has said fine, go ahead.'

You assumed wrong Ray. John Densmore has filed suit in L.A. Superior Court to prohibit his ex-band mates to use the name The Doors without him, and for proceeds of any shows that take place without him.

The lawsuit states that after lead singer Jim Morrison died in 1971, Densmore, Manzarek and Krieger agreed they'd split any future profits from The Doors music three ways and that the band's name wouldn't be used if all three original surviving members weren't involved.
