This is something I just did: I counted the doors in my house. I counted ten doors, including one garage, one sliding glass, & one pocket. I did not count any cabinet, appliance, or closet doors. That would run into the many dozens. & just realizing how many doors one has in one's life is kind of mind-blowing.
The thing is, there are hardly any songs about cabinet doors or closet doors. The major doors - the ones that let us in from outside & vice-versa - are the ones musicians sing about - or at least using those doors as metaphors. & as such those are the doors about which you'll hear in song on tonight's show.
Plus! I'll talk to a doorman, a next-door neighbor, & a fan of the Doors. & we'll talk about movies featuring doors as well. Can I tell you I listened to literally hundreds of songs for this show? I'm a little doored out, actually. But. I'll gather my strength for tonight's show.
Midnight to 3am on 90.7fm KBOO Portland, kboo.fm online. Don't worry about knocking, just come right in!
