Micky Everywhere – Half Monkee Reunion

A pair of Monkees to reunite for myRecordFantasy

Got a wool stocking cap, a British accent or a hankering to sing the
songs of Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart?

The opportunity will arise Aug.2-4 when former Monkees Mickey Dolenz
and Peter Tork reunite in Sacramento, CA, for a project that allows
fans participate in and observe the making of an album.

Mark Lindsay, former lead singer of Paul Revere and the Raiders, will
be among the guests participating in an event dubbed myRecordFantasy.
Registration information is available at the myRecordFantasy website.

MyRecordFantasy is a concept started by several industry veterans who
are offering fans a chance to be part of the creative process at
studios in Sacramento and Los Angeles. Each event is capped off with
the main artist performing a concert of past hits and the new
material. (A hipster version of “Goin’ Down,” anyone?)

Drummer Dolenz and guitarist Tork – the funny Monkees — were part of
the 20th anniversary reunion of the band in 1986 that lasted into the
mid-1990s. Dolenz’s latest album, a tribute to Carole King, was
released by Gigitone Records, the company that owns myRecordFantasy.

Mel Gutherie especially enjoys cruising in his Monkee Mobile, a 1966
GT convertible, one of two surviving from The Monkees television show.
The Northville car buff even drives it to work at the Gutherie Lumber
Co. in Livonia. The car is rumored to have been used in I Dream of
Jeannie before it became the Monkee Mobile.

Dolenz Joins Gibson And Tiffany’s Tv Movie

Eighties pop rivals DEBBIE GIBSON and TIFFANY will experience a blast
from the past when they begin filming new movie MEGA PYTHON VS.
GATOROID – former MONKEES star MICKY DOLENZ has been added to the
cast.

Gibson and Tiffany rose to fame as teen pop stars and they will go
head-to-head once more in the new TV release, which will poke fun at
their alleged rivalry by pitting them against one another for the
small screen.

But the pair won’t be the only familiar faces from pop history in the
film – producers have hired ’60s singer Dolenz to join the unusual
project, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Gibson will star as an animal rights campaigner who frees exotic
snakes from pet stores, while Tiffany will play a park ranger
desperate to save endangered alligators.

Mega Python vs. Gatoroid will be broadcast in the U.S. next year (11).
