FFS that's a bloody drag.


The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.

I grew up listening to oldies, and the Monkees made a lot of my favorites. So long, Mr. Jones. Thanks for the music.


Goodbye, I guess.

Hmm, Whitney, now Davy? It comes in 3s. Remember Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMann, and then Michael Jackson. I hate to say will see one more soon, but..

Way too soon, indeed.
I was thinking of that clip when I saw this thread!

And, around the 26 second mark (he's on the far left), we see that, beyond his wonderful voice, Davy Jones's skill of portraying a superhero in flight rivals that of Christopher Reeve's!!

Hehe, he was always so willing to do whatever it took for a laugh.
Thank you, Mr. Jones.

That's because he was. He was always a little kid at heart. He played his final concert only 10 days before his death, he just loved what he did.

I guess we'll just have to send it off on the last train to Clarksville.

RIP Davey!


We don' need no stinkin' signatures!

'Tis sad, indeed. I always liked The Monkees better than the Beatles.


Goodbye may seem forever
Farewell is like the end
But in my heart's the memory
And there you'll always be

My Dad had pictures of the Monkees dressed up as super heroes. I had to find a pic of it to put up here as an appropriate tribute...



Its a bird, its a plane, its...THE MONKEEMEN!

I suppose we'll here some semi-forgotten name from the 60s or 70s shortly...
