Well said. My first concert ever was their comeback tour in the 1980's. It was at the Omni in Atlanta and tens of thousands of people were overflowing. Now to see he's the only band member and playing to a crowd of the neighborhood of 1000.....hurts. Now.. if he's having fun and turning a profit.... all the more power to him and those involved with the tours. Its just a little saddening things changed like this.
it's just sad. The time for a Monkees reunion was while all four were alive. Mike waited until Davy died to decide he wanted to be a Monkee again (after ditching them on the Justus tour in 1997); now Micky is out there flogging it for every last time. You want to see the Monkees? All 58 episodes of the series are on DVD.
I cannot express how touching it is to see Micky continuing the legendary magic that is The Monkees!!!! RIP DAVY, MIKE AND PETER.......SURELY ROCKING ON IN HEAVEN!!!
"@kurtb8487" I hear that back in the 1980s when MTV was popular and episodes of the Monkees were being shown as old re-runs on MTV, it is what sparked an interest in younger viewers in teh Monkee's and their muysic, and the Monkees toured again, but though Mickey Dolenz was part of that tour, he said in some interviews that he was only doing it for the money and did not like being remembered as a Monkee, nor did he like "going back to the past" by singing the old songs and doing the reunion show. Furthermore, I recall back then that there just weren't anywhere near as much fans to their reunion concerts as when they originally toured in the mid 1960s. There were old fans who had grown up and had their own children and had passed on to the then younger generation of teens and preteens the music of the Monkees. It is just something that can only happen with the old, easy-listening type of Rock and Roll or pop music of the 1960s I went to their concert at Great Adventure amusement park back in the very late 1980s. However again, Dolenz said that the heyday of the Monkees were over and only smaller crowds came to see them in their reunion concerts and tickets sold at face value or even for less than face value by scalpers. Now that all the Monkees are gone except Dolenz who are those who go to these venues?
@@obscurelyvague Negativity like that is not needed. It is not making others’ days happier. As for the 1980s interviews quote, assuming it was true, people such as Micky can change their minds. It serves no purpose to compare numbers of audience members now and then. What matters is good intentions and that however many are there have a good time. Clearly some still want to go to Micky’s shows. I still like what he does solo. Furthermore, you misspelled Micky’s first name. I agree with Kurt’s two positive points. Have a nice day.
As I watch this, I'm reminded why I loved the Monkees. Doing my homework so I could catch another rerun. As I thought myself to be a big fan of ALL their music, I met my 1st wife. She proved to be a bigger fan. Especially of Mickey. She was involved with the fan club early and did the pen pal thing. With the Virginia Kid writing her too! (Boyce and Heart fame) picture's and story's were collected. So we're all sorts of merch. After our divorce, her crackhead brother came to town for moms funeral. He stole the entire collection. I felt bad but there wasn't anything I could do. He got what he deserved. Can't say here. Both she and I continue to be fans. I seen them 11 times. Her, more. And with stories of hiding in hotel rooms as well as meeting her favorite Mickey. Only seen Mike twice, but WOW. What a songwriter! Great music. Great memories. Love 'em to this day. Thanks for allowing my mind to drift back....
I really think they should be in the hall of fame. They certainly sold enough records, influenced millions, and were a major part of American culture in the 60's. If your argument against this opinion is they didn't play on "all" of their records then we should also discount the Beach Boys, the Byrds, the Mama's & the Papa's and countless other groups.
"@pkgannon" A lot of rap "artists" of today just make sounds with their mouths or by breathing a certain way to sound like drums or guitar scratching or Güiro
You’re absolutely correct! The groups you list are all great, but the Monkees earned a place in the music of Americana. The hall of fame is just a political organization anyway. The Monkees are about the music and entertaining!
Peter was right! He once said the remaining Monkee would go on, "Hey, hey, I'm the Monkee." Micky put on a decent show for a 78-year old and its touching tribute. To all the critics, you will be old someday too. Give Micky a break. He's doing something for the fans and maybe something therapeutic for himself. Thank you for posting this.
Peter was right, and it's sad. These guys did all they could to get away from the Monkee image when they were younger; then when the guys started dying off, suddenly it was "I want to be a Monkee again"! Sorry, you had your chance, you blew it. Many of us wanted to see all four together again in 1997, but Mike walked out on them.
@@ronfowlermusic I think the Monkee image was lost to them in the 70's. No one thought they were cool anymore. All my friends dropped them after the show was cancelled. I didn't. But Monkee reunion concerts were going on through the years when they were all alive. I never understood Mike's distain for his Monkees history for so long. Especially after he spearheaded their Justus recording and reunion special and then dropped touring when they got to the USA. Then I didn't get him getting all nostalgic in his old age either. But the other guys were willing to please the fans from the 80s onward. I went to Monkee concerts in the 80's, 90's and early 2000's. Davy, Micky and Peter always put on great shows and I never missed Mike at all.
@@pamelahall517 Mike may have had the luxury. He reportedly inherited a small fortune because his mom invented liquid paper. Perhaps he did not have to worry about making money. He may have felt that he could just go ahead do something other than be a Monkee or continue being remembered for being a Monkee. Nesmith actually found some major success making music videos. (BTW I heard that the movie "A Hard Days Night" had scenes in it that were a forerunner to the Music TV videos that were popular in the 1980s and the Monkees TV show more-directly had scenes that were a predecessor to the music videos that MTV had, but a lot of Buster Keaton's films and other comedic silent films or the 1920s were a precursor to all of that). Nevertheless I recall reading sometime in the early 1970s (or roughly) which was directly after the MOnkees' hey-day years, that Peter Tork was doing things like singing in nightclubs "for his supper" and also teaching music in schools. Davy had a hard time finding something in show-biz and did things like appear on the Brady Bunch to use his original image as the cute member of The Monkees, and he also toured with Dolenz along with "Boyce and Hart" (songwriters) to sing songs that were made famous by them but it did not result in very big crowds. Dolenz reportedly directed some movies and did other things and reportedly even auditioned to be "The Fonz" on Happy Days. Had he gotten the part, he just may have become more famous as the Fonz at least to a younger audience. Actually if he did not find fame as a Monkee his role as "Corky" the Circus Boy would have been mostly forgotten.. Davey went on to say several more years later that he should have gone back to his most original goal back before he ever became famous, being a jockey. Whether they wanted to or not, they just cannot be remembered for anything else but being Monkees
@@obscurelyvague I agree The Monkee phenomenon was hard for them to get over. Many people only remember the characters that tv stars play. These guys had to do something during the 70's, post Monkees, before MTV got them reintroduced to the masses. I don't think there was anything wrong with singing for supper or teaching or directing or with any of them reflecting on the what ifs. Fame is tricky. I can't imagine what it would be like to have top of world stardom, only to be dumped down to ordinary life. Its hard for many people. But they were resilient men. I met and spent time with Peter and Davy in the early 2000's and they were genuinely nice guys. I knew Peter a little better, and he grew a lot in his private life through the years and made peace with his demons and being a Monkee decades before he died. By all accounts, all the guy's kids adored them as well and most of their exes spoke well of them and that speaks volumes. I'll always remember Peter, Davy, Micky and Mike as more than just being Monkees. Many would agree with me.
Thank you, Micky for this wonderful tribute! Where does time go? I remember watching The Monkees for the first time in Peru in the late ‘60s. The very first album I got as a teenager was More of the Monkees. It was the background music to many a happy moment of my youth. In the 90’s I was thrilled to get the series from Rhino. It was amazing to be able to share this beloved series and the music of my youth with my young nephews, who became instant fans. We met Davy at a book signing in FL. He invited us to your summer concert, and when we went, we were able to meet you guys backstage. You were all so gracious. You signed my Monkees’ cap. Davy spent time giving good advice to my little nephews who listened in awe to his every word. Peter was so sweet. I know all your songs by heart, and love almost all of them. My all-time favorites are Sometime in the Morning, and Shades of Gray. To me, Shades of Gray represents the story of your lives, our lives. How did such a young group come to sing about such a deep subject? It seems to me that the youth of your time was more mature then. In any case, thank you for the beautiful lifetime memories. We love you, Micky! Monkees forever! ❤
@@obscurelyvague He told them to listen to their mom. He may have thought I was the mom, not the auntie. He also told them to be good boys, to do their homework… My nephews nodded dutifully. I was in heaven just knowing that Davy was addressing them. I knew meeting Davy would mark an important memory for them. I did not expect that he would be so gracious. We all left the event with a full heart and starry eyes. :)
So nice to see. Thank you for sharing. Such talent, such warmth. Micky is never on stage without David, Peter, Mike; together again in the only way possible. A great show (always was.)! Thank you, Micky and backing band.
Great seeing a song like No time which when the other guys were around, wasn't a constant staple on set lists. Thanks for all the wonderful years Micky.
Thanks so much for somehow being able to film this!! I was at the show on April 22nd in Royal Oak, MI. Endless thanks to Micky, Coco and the terrific band for all the wonderful memories!!
Such negativity in some of these comments geesh you would think the Monkees stole their lunch money, but I guess that is just the way of the internet. Anyways, this is awesome thanks for posting this!
Hoping I can see a concert; in thanks to inspiring Mickey Dolenz. I've been a Monkees fan since I was young in the 1960's and still haven't been to a concert. (( That's ridiculous...😢 )). Yes; I have to take the next TRAIN TO CLARKSVILLE. 😊 MICKY ...MIKE ... DAVY ... AND PETER; I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER ... 🌼✳️🤍🌅🤍✳️🌼
This was a very touching and enjoyable tribute. I miss Davy, Peter, and Mike a great deal, but Micky did a nice job honoring each of his bandmates. Clearly, he is aging and probably had a lot of emotions to deal with just being up there without the rest of the guys, but he has a ton of spirit and admirable stamina. Love that he has Coco with him. She provided nice support.
@@chuckfan1 Hello again Chuck, I’d be glad to “get over” any overreacting selfishness regarding myself, like if it bothered me if people spelled my own name incorrectly over and over. I will not “get over” making occasional courtesy posts about other people’s names. It is actually a gesture of my respect for the other person that I’d assume they (and someone who butts in like you) have the maturity to not get offended at my correcting a spelling of name when I am polite and I don't insult. I know I am glad about being corrected about a name spelling if I get one wrong, as I have no ego and I like learning new things. You can call me any lame insult you wish, but “Karen” is the name of one of my cousins who was a great caretaker of my aunt and uncle, and that and my being an ardent feminist is why I object to the trendy common “Karen” terminology. Sure we know who it is, but anyone would rather have their name correct than incorrect. I did write “Please.” Have a nice week and stay safe.
If you were 5 years old in 1966 you might bring back some childhood memories. For anyone else Don't waste your time, it sucks, Mickey is living in a dream world. They didn't write the three hits they had, didn't even play instruments. They were hired as actors for a sitcom copying the Beatles. If you want to see clips of these stooges from the 1966 sitcom for 90 minutes go see it!
The Monkees were talented guys -that's why they were hired for the show. But it's ridiculous that Micky is out there touring as "The Monkee". He should have given it up long ago.
@@ronfowlermusic Mickey was hired as an actor, copying the child-like antics of the Beatles in a Hard Days Night, slapstick style humor but for 10 year old children.
@@ringaleavo Micky was hired as an actor AND a singer. If he couldn't sing, Rafelson and Schneider would have just had him mime to someone else's voice. All of the Monkees could sing and play. But it's silly that he's still trying to be a Monkee in 2023. Davy, Peter qand Michael are gone, the Monkees are no more. It's just like that old joke, that one of the Monkees was going to record an album as The Monkee.
@@richbailey8174 The best judgers of when it is time for people to retire are those people themselves. Its only their business. Fans can stick with them or abandon them as the fans see fit. You have the right to your opinion, but if you tell musicians as well as their fans what to do, you should expect some fans will interpret that as crossing a line. You seem to have some deep rooted personal insecurity that would prompt you to feel the need to post negativity as you did. I wish you best luck with dealing with that. Have a nice week.
This is both sad and inspiring, all at once. Micky still has a very good voice, and he and the band put on an excellent show. I really admire Micky.

They didn't write the three hits they had, didn't even play instruments. They were hired as actors for a sitcom copying the Beatles. If you want to see clips of these stooges from the 1966 sitcom for 90 minutes go see it!
All I can say to you for your nice commentary is Gas was $2.35 on election day
The Monkees were talented guys -that's why they were hired for the show. But it's ridiculous that Micky is out there touring as "The Monkee". He should have given it up long ago.
@@ronfowlermusic Mickey was hired as an actor, copying the child-like antics of the Beatles in a Hard Days Night, slapstick style humor but for 10 year old children.
Where’s the link to your great work? You must be an amazing musician, actor, and performer!
@@ringaleavo Micky was hired as an actor AND a singer. If he couldn't sing, Rafelson and Schneider would have just had him mime to someone else's voice. All of the Monkees could sing and play. But it's silly that he's still trying to be a Monkee in 2023. Davy, Peter qand Michael are gone, the Monkees are no more. It's just like that old joke, that one of the Monkees was going to record an album as The Monkee.
Cute. It's time for acts from the 60's to retire and for their fans to move on.
But then we're left with the garbage of today. So there goes that Idea.
It's not for those such as you to be the sole judge of that. You would not like people telling you what to do with your life.
@@bobdavis4848 I don't really care what others think. I do know when it's time to retire and to stop attending shows by people like this.
@@anotheryoutubeaccount9852 fine...you can still listen to Monkees music all you want.
@@richbailey8174 The best judgers of when it is time for people to retire are those people themselves. Its only their business. Fans can stick with them or abandon them as the fans see fit. You have the right to your opinion, but if you tell musicians as well as their fans what to do, you should expect some fans will interpret that as crossing a line. You seem to have some deep rooted personal insecurity that would prompt you to feel the need to post negativity as you did. I wish you best luck with dealing with that. Have a nice week.
