Ray Manzarek gets a chance to showcase his classical music training on Thursday (10/8) when he and guitarist Robbie Krieger join the Phoenix Symphony for an evening of Doors music.  Dozens of acts, including bands as diverse as Metallica and the Moody Blues, have performed with orchestras since Procol Harum recorded with the Edmonton Symphony in 1972, but this marks the first time Doors members have taken the stage with an orchestra.  Manzarek likes the prospect, though he says how well things go is hardly a sure thing since the only meeting before the performance will come during an afternoon soundcheck the day of the concert.
