The concert was FANTASTIC!!! Many of the "lesser known" songs were done, off the albums! It was nice to finally see Mike for the first time - (and his kids)!!! I've been a lifelong fan (48 years)!!! You guys all sounded and looked wonderful!!! It's "Hard To Believe" two of you are in your 70's!!! On a personal note, I did keenly feel the loss of Davy though...but I'm pleased with the the way he was honored, both at the concert (with "Daddy's Song" & "Daydream Believer") and with the page in the 2014 Monkee Tour Book! And "Thanks" Micky for pointing at me during "I'm A Believer" - (I was in the 3rd row, middle, with the Davy T-shirt, and Davy/Monkee buttons), remember?!!! And Yes, I agree with the above - they belong in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame - absolutely!!! The moments on the screen behind them were priceless - some of the very "best" moments from the TV Show, their movie "HEAD", 331/3 1969 TV Special, Screen Tests, and some of their funniest bits!!! Wonderful, wonderful show!!! It couldn't have been any better - except if Davy had been there!!! There was a wonderful and warm "family" aspect to it. You could tell that they were enjoying themselves, and enjoying being with their fans!!! I seriously love you guys always!!!
Great concert! They must have taken lessons because they played great! There was a string of about three songs where it was just them playing and they did very well. Vocal and harmonies any group would have been proud of especially live. So glad we decided to go. Amazing songs. Never realized so many hits came from THEIR own work. They may have started off as a non group but these guys belong in the Hall! I'd see them again tonight! Rocksino is a great place for concerts. That's a sure bet!
