He's GONE.....

Well, I knew eventually this day would come. I remember when Harry Nilsson died, Roy Orbison, Syd Barrett, and a host of other musicians that I loved. But I never thought this day would come so soon. Today, the world lost one of The Monkees. If you fail to see the impact that this has had on me, read the post a few pages back titled "Why The Monkees". While he was personally not my favorite, because of his attitude toward the whole experience, and basically biting the hand that fed him, to me he was ugly on the inside. However, the world has lost someone who was an integral part of the 60's. I'm still in shock that 1/4 of my favorite group is now gone.
