More the fated Doors reunion. Former Police drummer Stewart Copeland who was drumming for the reformed Doors until he fell out with original members Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger has come to an amicable compromise. Copeland sued the band for breach of contract, alleging that the pair broke a promise to use him during the tour and on an upcoming studio album. But all parties have now reached a settlement.
Manzarek currently touring with Kreiger and a new band as The Doors of the 21st Century said, "We're glad we were able to resolve this matter, and we wish Stewart all the success in the future."
Original Doors drummer John Densmore, who also sued Manzerek and Krieger, claiming they used the Doors name without his permission is, from what we hear, still very much aggrieved.
