Davy Jones: 1945-2012

"Whenever I think of the Monkees, it's a sunny morning, the brightest colours, and David Jones's eyes. Their music is perfect, as perfect as pop could ever be. Last Train to Clarksville has been written, and we are left with our own imperfection."

Robert Forster, The Go-Betweens

  2. I did wonder why there was no-one there.
    I thought about posting asking where everyone was, but thought maybe they're all at some really cool party and I'll just look like Billy No-Mates. :(
