Matt is from Durham, in the North East of England (almost a Geordie type accent) and Alex is Welsh

And now my favorite, Mike has also just passed away leaving Mickey , who he toured with just a month ago, as the only Monkee left.. I miss you guys and thank you for showing up for that audition 😉

There's 58. You're in luck! (if you've not already found that out since)

uselessjoe Really?

Captain obvious has nothing on you...

That's a joke on your part, right?

Sadly, no. X

Yes, it is possible to fake that. Peter and Michael did not get along. Not sure about the others. But they did know how to laugh at themselves and remain entertaining to the end.

I so loved Davy. I do agree with you. I knew from other videos he had gained through his stomach, but the poor guy had also gained a lot through his chest as well. RIP Davy, Peter, and Mike

Michael Nesmith had a lot of other projects going during his post-Monkees tenure. He was the CEO of a video production company, executive producer of music videos and films, and still did music. It's not possible for him to just drop all of his commitments all the time and go out with the Monkees on the road. I wish people would GET this fact. And considering Mike had Don Kirshner telling him at a young and impressionable age that he was talentless without Kirshner, it's a wonder he wants anything to do with it at all.

@excelsciors I don't think you have the full story. Mike and some of the other Monkees have been asked this question about Mike's absence in the many touring years and it has been made clear that he had a company and a business to run. That business was extremely successful and lucrative. It would have been a huge challenge to do the tour and run his video company. Mike is informally considered one of the fathers of MTV. He also wrote and directed the Monkees tv special in the 90s. If you look at their careers, you'll see that Peter and Micky did many other non Monkees endeavors. However, (only my speculation) I'm guessing that for them they may have realized that it was more lucrative to tour as the Monkees. I totally respect them all. I think young Mike got a bit of a reputation from knowing and expressing what he wanted earlier on. Sounded like he had better business sense too. All in all, seems like they worked quite hard.

Stella Luna: You are very kind, but please spell Davy's name correctly.

Have I also ever told you that; the world peace insignia, is a false sense of victory? My pop/father George D. Shelton, has no approval of it.

@@bobdavis4848 It took Susie K. Shelton 17 years; to accept Jesus Christ as, her own Lord and personal Savior. Don't you get surprised that, Christianity is growing in Japan. I haven't seen one Japanese woman; who's an SNL Saturday Night Live cast member just as yet, in reference to this subject.

@@bobdavis4848 The Japanese woman who I expected to be an SNL (Saturday Night Live); cast member was Peggy Willman, she use to be a Miss Alaska pageant back then in 2002.

@@georgeshelton6281 George Shelton: Hello; sorry, I am confused. I don’t know who Susie K. Shelton is. I’m not religious. I’ve been to Japan about 27 times. The only religious trend I recall learning about regarding Japan is Buddhism is common, unlike Christianity which is more common in America. The only religious details I recall hearing from any Japanese person I have talked to was a lady who told me the last time I was there that she is a Buddhist. I have mixed feelings about Saturday Night Live but I also don’t recall seeing any cast member on that show I knew was Japanese. How does Susie K. Shelton, Christianity, Japan, Saturday Night Live or Peggy Willman relate to this Monkees feature in the video above?

I as well am still processing Davys death. I have been researching and reading about his death and the time leading up to it. its really heartbreaking. his last wife abused him and hurt him physically & mentally. I guess the most gentle & humble people this happens to. she had been jailed prior to their marriage for the same kind of thing and Davy was her 3rd marriage at age 30 something. He protected her. i think he must have realized she had mental problems and just tried to take care of her. me on the other hand would like to see her imprisoned for Everything she has ever done. God Bless Davy. He is safe & healthy now and i will see him in heaven.

Same, extremely devastating.

His light is brighter than ever in this world today. I'm watching him now. By the way the day after Peter passed we were playing Monkee records all day. My son & I were walking inside the house at the back door was a Cardinal bird at the door blocking us from entering. Flapping there for what seemed like a minute then it scared us and flew in our face. A few minutes later my son pointed to the cardinal sitting on the window sill looking inside at us! Absolutely amazing! Yes it was Peter Live & Well!
