[Questions] % Question from EAJ: [73577,1204] Nadine
[Questions] Hi Peter/Micky: What would you say was the biggest difference you found working
[Questions] together on Justus, as compared to when you worked together on Headquarters 30 y
[Questions] ears ago? Were there disagreements as far as what songs would be included/exclu
[Questions] ded on Justus, or was it smooth sailing?
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) Yoo-hoo!
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) Well, it’s never all smooth sailing,
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) Did you get that?
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) but it seemedto go smoother this time arounb
[Questions] DiL/PEOPLE) Type slower Mickey…
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) CIS will make it gibberish otherwise!
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) Sorry — This project went a lot smoother
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) we wrote everything , so the choosing
[Questions] ,PDiL/PEOPLE) Peter?
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) It’s hard to compare
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) over the time distance
[Questions] Peter Tork) because the other was so long ago
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) …
[Questions] ..
[Questions] NO MORE QUESTIONS! WE HAVE 100 ALREADY! SORRY!
[Questions] .
[Questions] Peter Tork) There wwere some peronalitiey comflicts
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) which were different this time — which
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) I won’t go into detail about — n
[Questions] how long do y’all think you’ll be touring? Do you see a tour happening in 2000?
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) We’ll be touring
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) probably on and off until
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) the end of this year.
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) The answer to the second
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) qestion is: God, I hope Not!!!!
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) We’ll be touring live on the Internet
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) by then with live conferences —
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) Did you get that?
[Questions] ,Micky Dolenz) you won’t even have to leave home!
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) *
[Questions] Peter Tork) Me too!~ Whatever Mickey said!
[Questions] Question from DJA: [73410,3433] Ria Heeringa
[Questions] I’m from The Netherlands. Is there any good news for the European tour?
[Questions] Where? When? (Why? 😉
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) Lol!
[Questions] ,Micky Dolenz) Well, where would be
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) the UK and parts of Europe.
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) The when is February, possibly.
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) And if you don’t know the answer to why
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) you shouldn’t be asking!
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) 😉
[Questions] ,Peter Tork) Wait
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) The European tour is only tentatie
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) at the moment — it depends on how other
[Questions] ,Peter Tork) aspects of the career thing pan out.
[Questions] Question from EXTERNAL NETWORK: [103454,3043] Tom Calhoun
[Questions] Are you recording any of this tour for another live album? The shows on this to
[Questions] ur are the best you have ever done!
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) We have recorded a few times — thanks.
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) Whether or not it gets released as a live
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) album is too early to tell. But thanks very much
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) for your encouragement!
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) *
[Questions] Peter Tork) Is Mickey through?
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) Yep!
[Questions] ,Peter Tork) Basically,
[Questions] Peter Tork) that answers the question.
[Questions] Peter Tork) We have tha album from the 80s tour
[Questions] Peter Tork) on sale now (Dolenz Jones and Tork), but
[Questions] Peter Tork) we don’t have any plans to do one for the
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) 90s tour.
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) next?
[Questions] ,PDiL/PEOPLE) Internet has the next question…
[Questions] Do you guys have any special events planned for September 12, the actual 30th an
[Questions] niversary date?
[Questions] ,Micky Dolenz) Yes, we do.
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) Our management has some plans afoot,
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) but it probably won’t be a major
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) public appearance — it
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) will probably be a priovate party where
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) we’ll throw the celebration for
[Questions] ,Micky Dolenz) our friends and family.
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) *
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) (peter…)
[Questions] ,Peter Tork) That about covers it!
[Questions] Question from EXTERNAL NETWORK: [76376,1656] Denise
[Questions] Peter, are you enjoying NOT playing the dummy on the tour this year? You seem t
[Questions] o be having a ton of fun anyway!
[Questions] Peter Tork) AS a matter of fact, the dummy comes
[Questions] ..
[Questions] AGAIN! NO MORE PRIVATE SENDS! IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO SQUEEZE IN THE ANSWERS!
[Questions] .
[Questions] Peter Tork) forth twice during the show. I don’t know how he got there. I
[Questions] enjoyplaying mbut I also enjoy playing the suave, erudite, sexy masterful, disti
[Questions] ngue guy.
[Questions] Peter Tork) as well. I am having that much fun and I’m glad it shows.
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) next?
[Questions] PDiL/PEOPLE) (Trying to gather up courage to ask Peter for his phone numbe
[Questions] r…)
[Questions] % Question from PROVIDENCE, RI: [105210,34] PERRY CORVESE
[Questions] I’ve never heard you guys comment on your last 3 original albums (Instant Replay
[Questions] , Present, Changes) You intentionally leave those songs out of your concerts.
[Questions] Do you think they’re inferior to the earlier stuff? What’s the Story?
[Questions] ,Micky Dolenz) (peter first)
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) I wasn’t on those albums — what do I care?
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) I was thinking about Mickekey’s song
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) LOL
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) Mommy and Daddy, and I would like to have that in
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) the show. Mickey?
[Questions] ,Micky Dolenz) Hmmm.
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) I agree.
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) We’ve not left any songs
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) out intentionally,
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) but most of the major hits —
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) and there were quite a few
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) — came off earlier albums, and
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) we only have time for
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) a two-hour show. Basically, we don’t have a chance
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) to do all the songs we’d like.
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) Patrizia — I just wanted to warn you that
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) they told us as we got off
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) the plane that our show was bumped up a half hour tonight.
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) That means I have to bail out of here by
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) 6:45, I’m afraid.
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) It has something to
[Questions] do with a curfew here
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) That gives us 15 minutes…
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) in Mancato. (“man-CAH-to”?)
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) More uestions?
[Questions] 1-18,Micky Dolenz) Sorry about that.
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) next is from the Internet!!!
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) next?
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) Weunderstand.
[Questions] (1-22,PDiL/PEOPLE) Go ahead Internet.
[Questions] You were actors before you were Monkees–what other roles have you played?
[Questions] ,Peter Tork) Shall I go first?
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) I was not a professional actor
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) before the Monkees.
[Questions] Peter Tork) But I did act in college and I was the Player King
[Questions] Peter Tork) in “hamlet” ( in the play withing the play).
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) Since then I have played only a
[Questions] Peter Tork) few parts, “Wings,” “California Dreams” and
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) “Boy Meets World.” And then
[Questions] Peter Tork) I played a character named Peter Tork on
[Questions] (1-49,Peter Tork) Stephen Banks show. Mickey?
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) It’s not correct to say
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) that we were just actors before the show.
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) We were
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) actors, singers
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) entertainers.
[Questions] Micky Dolenz) The show was cast much in the same way
[Questions] (1-18,Micky Dolenz) that you would cast a B’way musical.
