“Nesmith walked slowly out onto the stage and toward the other Monkees, who comically feigned incredulity.  Then all four embraced at center stage while the capacity crowd cheered wildly.”
-Stan Becker of Rhino Records, on the super-charged atmosphere of the Greek Theatre concert, 9/7/86

Mike joined Micky, Davy and Peter for an encore performance on the last night of a three night stand for the Monkees in Los Angeles in September 1986. The appearance of all four original Monkees performing on the same stage for the first time since 1968 was widely covered by mainstream media outlets. The Monkees sang “Listen To The Band” first, with Mike handling lead vocals. During the song the other three Monkees introduced the backing band to Mike. The final number was a rousing version of “Pleasant Valley Sunday,” complete with Nesmith handling the lead guitar riffs as he had done on the original studio version nineteen years earlier.
