i was lucky enough to see mike, micky and peter in 2012 not long after davy died. it was a very emotional show. then a couple of years later i saw the micky and peter show. finally in 2021 i saw the final show of mike and micky's farewell tour at the greek theater in los angeles. mike passed away a few short weeks later. i've been a monkees fan since the tv show debuted in 1966 so seeing their last concert was like coming full circle (sky).

@@DannyD714 Thanks for sharing Danny I've been a Monkees fan since I saw the reruns on MTV I first saw Davy perform in Washington PA in 2006 along with Jimmy Beaumont and the Skyliners and Jimmy Ross and the Jaggerz, then I saw Davy Peter and Micky in Pittsburgh during their 45th anniversary tour Then a year after Davy died I met Peter, Micky and many people at the Monkees convention including some of their guest stars from their show and some of the Brady Bunch In 2014 I saw Peter and Micky again with Mike in Pittsburgh In 2018 I met Mike at Steel City Con a few weeks after he had quadruple bypass surgery Then in 2021 I met up with Micky again at Steel City Con before he and Mike finished their farewell tour

@@alishadoutt5422 that's cool! i never got to meet any of them personally. i probably would have been too star struck to say anything lol. the first time i saw them was the 20th anniversary reunion tour in 1986. it was just davy,peter and micky,but mike did join them for the last show of that tour. they played with herman's hemits,the grass roots and another band i can't remember. i missed seeing micky solo last year. i hope i get another chance.

​@@DannyD714私は日本人です 初来日のときは子供でしたがＤＪBHのときにデイビーとミッキーに会いました 個々で来日したときにも会いました 特にデイビーの２度目の奥さんと当時生後半年の３番目の娘さんにも会いました

ミッキーも確か３回結婚しているはず デイビーも３回結婚してましたよ

me too

he rejected nesmith's "different drum" saying it wasn't a monkees song to which mike replied, "but i am one of the monkees!" so mike gave it to the stone poneys who had a massive hit with it. way to go genius !

Lol you’re right, He did! The Monkees were fantastic without him

LOL, so true!!

Have you ever changed your mind? Did it make you a bitter, pompous, jackass?

ディビーは馬鹿ではない

All of the Monkees were bitter at one time or another. Hollywood put them through the ringer. But they all came out the other side ok.

I met him not too long before he died and he was delightful, kind and most respectful to other musicians on the tv show being taped at that time. I was not a performer, but was there with friends who were. I was very impressed with him. A truly nice man.

welcome back kotter and 3s company are coming soon. after that i go back to digging through storage.

paul williams went on to have a successful career as a singer/songwriter.

at 1:18:15 part of the opening segment does get repeated. E! goofed,not me. after about 5 minutes it does pick up from where it left off. sorry for the confusion. it's the only copy of the show i have recorded.

in 2012, after davy died, mike toured with peter and micky in his memory. i went and it was a very emotional show. in 2021 mike and micky traveled the u.s. to honor the legacy of their music,and their band mates peter and davy in a farewell tour. i was at the last show of that tour. mike was in poor health, using an oxygen tank backstage between songs,and in fact died a few weeks after the tour ended. he didn't need to do that (as you said he didn't need the money),but he did it for the fans. over the years mike joined the others when his scheduled permitted. to say he didn't care is a lie.

Not True, He loved them all! You need to read and watch Mike's interviews! I have that is why I tell others to do that and then you get the reality of their lives! Peter quit the band when they were touring concerts! They did one album without Peter! Then they each went on with their own careers!
