CA - I did too !
I can't believe she was only 20 years-old and an editor of Tiger Beat. I can't believe he asked her if she wanted to try LSD. "Clothing is optional in my house" - omg ! Well, like she said it was the 60's. He seemed like a sweet guy.

Yeah - To say things were different back then would be a huge understatement, for sure!
I was also a Monkees fan, although not a hardcore. I was too enamored with The Beatles to be overly-invested in anyone else, but I still liked most of their hits and watched the show on occasion.
I am very sad to hear about Peter and my heart goes out to his loved ones and fans. It seems like hardly a month goes by these days that we don't lose another talent from my early years.
R.I.P. Peter

The first rock concert that I can remember attending was the Monkees in Houston at Astroworld in 1986. My sister and I waited with Mom all day so we could be at the front (it was General Admission). Fun times!

Soda - What a great memory !
I saw Davey Jones with two friends maybe 3-4 years before he died at the Bergen PAC Center. It was an enjoyable show.
