I resent the remark about the Monkees thread...mostly because I started it. But I love both bands and think both have their place in music. I just love The Who more.
When I was in Barnes and Noble yesterday, I (accidently) saw a naked picture of Keith. Don't ask how. It scarred me.
Yeah, it's weird. No channels show the Monkees anymore, and On Demand has suddenly stopped letting me watch the episodes! *sad sigh* So when my mom gets home tonight, she's going to look and see if any place has the box set.
I didn't think it was out on DVD actually.
Really? How were they, ninelives? I've heard Monkees shows are a lot of fun!
And I watched the Princess Gwen clip-HILARIOUS. Mike's a better woman than I thought he'd be!
My dad has a copy of the Monkees' greatest hits on vinyl, which I listened to yesterday. All the great songs! Here are my three favorites:
1. Monkee's Theme
2. Daydream Believer
3. (I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone
I got into these guys a few days ago by watching a bunch of old episodes from their TV show On Demand. Boy, were they funny! (And cute.) My current favorite episode is "The Spy That Came in From the Cool," where the Monkees get involved in espionage!
For all lovers of Davy Jones, Peter Tork, Micky Dolenz and Mike Nesmith, this is the place to be! Post your favorite Monkees videos, remenisce about the TV show, post your reviews of the movie Head, or talk about how cute Davy is....it's up to you!

Yeah, I know it's a little early for this (and it's a little hokey), but hey, it's PAUL. And you can't help but smile when you hear it. (Yes, I do prefer John's "Happy Xmas.")
I love the Rock n Roll Circus performance of this song. It was why the Circus remained unreleased for so long: the Stones were pissed that the Who upstaged them!

There's only one bad thing about this thread: it turns me into a babbling drool-monkey. You girls are doing a great service for this forum...keep it up!
