Mike Nesmith Reuniting With The Monkees For Fall Tour

08/09/2012
. (Gibson) The Monkees are set to kick off an autumn tour beginning November 8 at Escondido, California's Center for the Arts. The 12-city trek wraps up on December 2 at New York's Beacon Theater.

The performances will be the first the band has undertaken since the death of singer Davy Jones, who passed away in February. Plans call for Jones to be saluted in the show's multimedia context. The group will perform as a trio composed of surviving members Micky Dolenz, Peter Tork and Michael Nesmith.

Remarkably, the dates mark the first instance in which Nesmith has participated in a Monkees tour in the U.S. since 1969. "This seems like a good time to do this � the right time," says Nesmith. "Who knows when we will get another chance?" more on this story
