If you are interested in just looking like The Lizard King Jim Morrison, let alone playing the man and trying to make a living playing the man in public, the lead vocalist from the Strange Days Band, is the guy you want model your act after. The Strange Days Morrison cover has The Lizard King look down, with white button-down shirt, as well as the white poet shirt that he wears, and of course the American-Indian, silver concho belt, and of course Jim Morrison's famous, sexy, skin-tight black leather jeans, that he wore almost everywhere in public, at least and not just in concert, but to weddings, party's, to church, even, from 1967-69, and his leather cowboy boots.

Imagine Jim Morrison instead of being the frontman of the The Doors from 1967-69, when The Doors were famous and popular, before The Lizard King was overwhelmed by his alcoholism and legal battles, he was performing during the last five years and today instead and imagine what he would look like. Instead of seeing him almost exclusively in black and white (unless you were at his show) you are seeing him exclusively in color. The guy who plays Jim Morrison for Strange Days, is probably the real Jim Morrison that you would see today, perhaps a little shorter. But the whole Lizard King, rock & roll, cowboy, wardrobe and attitude, that you see from this Morrison cover, is probably what you would see from the real Lizard King, assuming Morrison stuck with the leather jeans, cowboy boots, and concho belt.

The lead vocalist has the look of the Lizard King down except for maybe longer hair. And I think his skin-tight leather jeans might actually be tighter than Jim Morrison’s. Which is saying something, because it is hard to imagine a man who wore tight leather jeans and leather jeans even more skin-tight than Jim Morrison. At least from Jim Morrison’s generation.

One of the reasons why Jim Morrison was The Lizard King, because of how he dressed and his skin-tight leathers looked on him. I think Strange Days is the best Doors cover band I’ve seen at least. And there are at least a couple of others that are pretty good. But the guy who plays Jim Morrison, has The Lizard King down. And not just outfit and physical look, but the voice and charisma and how he presents himself on stage. This guy is a hell of an actor and singer.
