Hey Hey it's The Monkees...

Dublin's Vicar Street venue was the host to legendary group The Monkees, on Saturday night.

Despite the fact that only two of the original members are performing, Mickey Dolenz and Davey Jones (Michael Nesbitt and Peter Tork being the other two), it was still a sell out show.


Micky and Davy

The original manufactured boyband, with hits such a Daydream Believer and I'm a Believer, it was 37 years since they have played together.

Despite having a hugely popular TV show and many hits, the group only lasted for little over 2 years.

Speaking to Irish media recently, Micky said: "We all went our separate ways after two years, but the songs have continued to be big even to this day".

"We got lucky by landing the TV show and having those hit songs. But eventually we wanted to do our own things and jump off the train. I was happy enough to try out new things because I had other strings to my bow. But soon enough I realized that no matter what we did for the rest of our lives the Monkees would never really end. So I guess because of that we have ended up in the situation we are in now - we can still tour and be a band together and the fans are still there".


Billy Bob and Elvis

Among the crowd were Billy Bob Thornton and Elvis Costello - who obviously decided to jam together the following night at Billy Bob's gig in the same venue!
