Monkees duo to make concert stop in Tahoe
By Andy Greene, Rolling Stone
The Monkees’ Michael Nesmith and Micky Dolenz are hitting the road in June for their first-ever tour as a duo. They’re calling the tour The Monkees Present: The Mike and Micky Show (as opposed to simply “The Monkees”) because their fellow surviving bandmate Peter Tork is not participating. Though the set centers around the classic group’s vast catalog, Nesmith and Dolenz plan to roll out deep cuts and rarities.
“It will be very different than a Monkees show,” Nesmith told Rolling Stone in January. “I mean, it’ll be Monkees music, but there’s no pretense there about Micky and I being the Monkees. We’re not. We’re the remnants.”
The duo will be at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe on June 9.
