Abrupt end of the Monkees tour leaves fans wondering why


The remaining dates of the Monkees 45th anniversary tour of the U.S. were canceled Monday. No official reason was given, but informed sources said the rest of the dates were not run by the group.  Reports had starting circulating earlier in the day that some or all of the dates had been cancelled.  A posting on Davy Jones' Facebook page was the first official word to confirm it. It read:
After having contacted a representative of Davy Jones, it has been determined that the remainder of The Monkees 2011 tour HAS BEEN CANCELLED.  No reason has been given at this time. When more information becomes available, it will be posted.
Furthermore, it is the request of the Facebook Team that you respect the privacy of The Monkees and refrain from posting any speculation on the matter in your Facebook comments on this site.

When information is available from an official reliable source, it will be made available to you.  Again, we apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your continued support of The Monkees.  ~ FB Team

Drainage Project at My Condo

This is what I came home to from my vacation; that's my stair landing with the yellow tape; my beautiful blooming tree is gone ... all the trees in this courtyard are gone and with no canopy.  I had to lower my air conditioner by a few degrees so up will go my electric bill not to mention the impact on the environment.


The forms were put in today; I'm a little more optimistic than I was this morning; things seem to be looking up with the new sidewalk curving through the courtyard rather than just being in a straight line...perhaps this means there are plans to beautify the area; I am hoping that these plans will include mature trees planted where they were removed; the tree was such an integral part of my internal environment so I'd love to have it replaced; and not only my place but my neighbors in this area ... I'm choosing to assume that the area is going to be put back more beautiful than before with a view out my living room window that will be breathtaking... you know I'll keep you posted.
