The funniest scene from the tv series?.

One of my favourites was the 'Peter vs. machine' scene from the episode 'Monkees vs. machine'.

Machine: Your name please.
Peter: What?
Machine: Thank you. Last name What. And your first name, Mr. What?
Peter: N-it's not 'What'
Machine: Notwhat. Mr. Notwhat What.
(Peter start's to try to correct the machine, but is interupted)
Machine: Occupation?.
Peter: Peter...Ya dig? Pete
Machine: You dig Peat. Occupation: Peat digger. And your mother's maiden name?
Peter: Thompson
Machine: Mother's name Thompson. Sex, please?
Peter: female
Machine: All right, Mrs Notwhat.
Peter: No, my *mother* is female.
Machine: And what do you do in your spare time?
Peter: Listen, i'm a man.
Machine: In your spare time, you are a man.

Peter really didn't stand any chance, did he?. Really makes me laugh everytime i think about this scene.

'Look out here comes tomorrow'.

I really like that song. I do wonder who Davy picked. Mary or Sandra.

Also, and i know this is just me and my stupid sense of humour, but every time i hear 'Mary, Mary', i wonder if it's the same Mary that Davy was two-timing in 'Look out here comes tomorrow'. I know Micky sings 'Mary Mary' but i still can't help thinking it's the same Mary. Yeah, i'm crazy lol.

The girl that i knew somewhere.

It's a really good song, i like it a lot, but i do wonder why some album listing's have this song down as 'The girl i knew somewhere' and other's have it down as 'The girl i knew sometime'.

I know Micky sings 'somewhere', so i just assumed that was the title of the song.

But, the "Daydream believer"  greatest hit's have the title down as 'sometime', and i've seen a couple of lyrics sites also have it down as 'sometime'.

I just have no idea why, or how, this song seem's to have two title's. Maybes someone misheard the lyrics and thats how the confusion started?. Or maybes it was just a typo nobody decided to put right?.

Some of Davy's song's are a little too slushy for me.

I love a lot of Davy's lead song's. 'Daydream believer' is a classic. 'A little bit me, a little bit you' is an all time favourite of mine, and i love 'Star collector' and 'Valleri'.

But, i admit that some of his lead song's are a bit too slushy and slow for my own personal taste. 'I wanna be free', for example, is one song that i can't listen to without the odd cringe moment. Like i've said, that's just me, i'm sure there's loads of people who love the slow, slushy Davy song's. People like different thing's and that's cool.

Oh, i'm listening to 'shades of gray'  as i type this, and i love this song too. Off topic, but i am so glad they let Peter sing on this song. I love the way he and Davy's vocal's are so different, but they really compliment each other on this song.

'Mommy and Daddy'.

I know i may be alone here, but i really like, and prefer, the released version over the 2nd (or maybes first) version of the song.

I really like the song. I like how the unreleased (until later) version is quite darker than the released 1st version (the JFK line, for example), but I like the line 'do you think i'm too young, to know, to feel, to see, to hear', so the 1st releasee version wins just for that reason alone.

The tour has been made official...i think.

From what i understand from fan pages on Facebook, the american tour is now confirmed.

Which means that, maybes, fan's in other part's of the world can start getting excited for the possibility of a tour coming their way?. I am a little eager in wanting to see the guys live.

I'd love to hear Micky's vocal's 'live' and witness his amazing voice in person (and see him in person), and I'd quite like to see Mike/ Micheal (never quite sure what to call him when i'm refering to him away from the Monkees. Maybes PapaNez?) live too, as i have only ever heard good things about seeing him live (and i have never seen him live either), and it would be good to see Peter live too.

So, the tour....

I find it a little strange that tickets have been made avaliable for tour dates, and yet there hasn't been any official announcement made, yet, about the tour.

I wonder if we are gonna get some big, wonderful news that the tour is gonna be bigger than we ever imagined, and maybe some new material from the boys. Yeah, i know it's a long shot, but there's no harm in having a little bit of hope.

If you are going to see the boys at a show, i hope you have an amazing night. How could you not, though, being that close to Micky and Michael and Peter. It's just sad that the four guys will never perform together again.

I hope that they will come and visit the UK again. I would love to see them 'Live' and then, i would be a very happy lady. And i'm sure fan's in other countries are thinking the same, so please come and visit us, sometime, guys.
