BREAKING; The Monkees Mike Nesmith has died | |
Tangy
 User ID: 23189531  United States12/11/2021 12:53 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just found this about Mr. Nesmith--- Quoting: 1guynAz Nesmith died Dec. 10 at the age of 78, less than a month after taking his final bow on the Monkees farewell tour. “The last show of the tour is pretty much a blur to me,” Doelnz admitted. “Our last conversation probably took place that night, but I don’t recall it specifically. We did hug that night on the stage. And the whole tour was very emotional for me. I knew it was pretty unlikely that, for whatever reason, we’d ever be doing this again. That was both our attitudes for us. We went out with flair.” Dolenz stated it was "not [his] place to talk about the exact state of [Nesmith's] health towards the end of his life. But it’s public knowledge that just a couple of years ago, he had a quadruple bypass. It’s also no secret he was a Christian Scientist." Nesmith's death means that Dolenz is the final surviving Monkee.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 81125768 United States12/11/2021 09:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Monkees were fun back in the day, but let's not pretend they were some sort of musical innovators...not even close. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77940018 No one's saying they were innovators, but... Mickey owned one of the first Moog synthesizers ever made and you can hear it on "Daily Nightly" and some other songs, also it appears in one of the TV episodes on Daily Nightly. Mike was a pioneer in country rock. You have no idea how many songs he actually wrote and recorded with The Monkees because some didn't surface on compilations until later because they weren't put on the albums. If you listen to the actual albums plus unreleased tunes, they were more than just bubblegum pop music. There were Mike's country songs as mentioned, plus some psychedelia, some R&B and some folk tunes written by Peter. |

User ID: 76190053 United States12/11/2021 11:15 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | he got exactly what he deserved - the monkees shows required attendees to be vaccinated Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81279841 As a heart patient who had a quadruple bypass, he should have stayed well away from the clot shot. My brother had septuple by-pass and as his Power of Atrtorney (both financial and medical), I won’t let anyone with a needle near him without letting me know and I warn them I will sue them if it happens. That said, it could have been the venue that pressed for the all be vaxxed/negative covid test. None-the-less, if he willingly, foolishly took the shot, then yes, he got his comeuppance.
