I have never done Cult TV before, the convention was good. It gives the fans a chance to meet the celebrities. Connect with the guy that used to be a bunch of coloured dots on your TV screen.

I got on with the Byrds much better. I was in Greenwich Village with Roger McGuinn, of The Byrds, we used to smoke and hang out.
fun night play
It was so much fun to do, play the blues and then play a Monkees set on the same night.
morning night sick
The four of us couldn't have made a record with the time left over when we were shooting the show. We were on stage from 7.30 in the morning 'til 7 at night. Later on, when there was a break from filming, and we were sick of doing it the old way.
sunday guitar band
Michael Sunday and I are the original members of the band. We first did it just for charities and benefit concerts. It was very ad-hoc, and before we knew it, we were really a band. We went through several drummers and guitarists before we were happy with the line up.

Original Monkees' songs were produced very thinly, on purpose.
two wife house
What I remember most are some of the guys in the background - who they were and what kind of times we had during those days on the set. I remember staying at Mikes house in Hollywood when we first started filming the series. It was the upper story of a two-story building on a little hillside. Mikes wife, Phyllis, was wonderful. Mike and I laughed a lot and played music together. I remember that time very fondly.
too-late musician energy
Put you energy into music. If it fails you, you can become an accountant or a dentist. And then if you become a dentist or an accountant, it's too late to become a musician afterwards.
stars firefighter want
No, in 1968 I still wanted to be a Pop Star, and be about the music. Now, I want to be just about the music.
I like to listen the blues and some classical.
car house listening-to-music
I never listen to music in the house, I listen to music in the car.

I get to play a scorching lead guitar, and there's not much that's more fun than that.
