Well, there is much debate on whether drummers are real musicians.

They're metronomes.

I still have my Davy Jones love beads.

Nesmith with somebody named John Lennon...

Like many nostalgic shows and musical groups......they were short lived, but became cult icons for the ages.

"hey hey we're the Monkees...people say we monkey around"

Not terrible.
The dude lived a very fortunate life. Not just because of his wealth, but he got to do what he loved for a living for many years.
Living to 78 is not great, but not too bad either.
Celebrate the life.

Songs of youth...will live forever:

"the More Monkees album is the worst CD in the history of the world", Nesmith bellowed, after an internal band squabble despite just playing a great show in Cleveland

it was their best-selling album, with the best-selling hit "I'm A Believer"...strange!
