Davy Jones!!!



For those who don't know, I am a HUGE Monkees fan and last month Davy Jones came here on tour! It was awesome!!! I was bound and determined to be on the front row and thanks to Suzy we made it! (I had her run for it as soon as we got in the door) We were front row, center and he was just a few feet from us. He looked really good and it was so fun to watch him dance (some things never change!). We got to sing along and his band was really, really good I was very impressed.

Here is a link to some of the footage I got with my camera. Enjoy and be jealous.
Davy Jones - "Day Dream Believer"

I have had two opportunities to see the Monkees in concert and missed them both. The first time I was in Lubbock waiting for Scott to be born (Karen and Alicia got to go to that concert. I got a shirt :-<) (okay, thanks for the shirt. I loved it) The second was my senior year of high school and I got tickets right down front for their final tour concert. Then I found out we had a band invitational to go to that same night and try as I might, my band director would not let me go. (I was pit section leader, but that's no excuse. This was important!!!) To make matters worse, when we lined up to go on the field it started raining so we packed up and went home. I couldn't believe it. Then the next day I had to hear about how great the concert was and how I totally missed out. That was definitely not the high point of my year. So I know Davy is not much, but after all I have been through I will take it.
