Damn. My wife said last week that she heard he had dementia.

Dude was a pioneer for sure.

Dolenz is the sole survivor.

I loved this show and the music. I played the records on my Fischer Price record player that had a knob in the middle that would untwist and scratch the record occasionally. He didn't get along well with Peter, I didn't know much else about them. Davy was my favorite because he was hot but Nesmith was pretty talented. Monkees playlist today it is.

Weird. He (& Mickey) performed at the Rosemont Theater just over 1 month ago.

Mike and Mickey must’ve known something to schedule their farewell tour like this.

Somewhere Marge Simpson is weeping quietly into her lunchbox.

Factoid: most of his fortune was not from The Monkees. He inherited tens of millions from his mother, who had invented Liquid Paper.

Very interesting guy. I heard an interview with him not long ago, I think on NPR. He talked a lot about First National Band.

He also was the guy behind one of my all time favorite movies, Repo Man.

Terrible news. I always liked him.
