Surviving members Micky Dolenz and Michael Nesmith took the stage one last time as The Monkees at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. The performance concluded an extensive farewell tour that began back in September and saw The Monkees perform across the United States.
The band delivered a 27-song show that was divided up into two sets. The show saw The Monkees open with their 1969 hit “Good Clean Fun” and perform numerous classics from their catalog including “Last Train to Clarksville,” “Daydream Believer,” and “I’m a Believer.”
The band initially formed in 1966 for a TV series of the same name and featured Peter Tork and Davey Jones alongside Dolenz and Nesmith. Jones passed away in 2012, while Tork died in 2019.
They went on to become one of the best-selling bands of all time with over 75 million records sold worldwide.
