@thetysullivan.bsky.socialBig week for #Anniversaries that changed my life.
Passing of my Mum 21 years ago today 9/12.
The #Monkees debuted 60 years ago today 9/12. My 2nd fave band. (Thanks Mum!)

60th Anniversary of Star Trek debuting.
So…it’s been a week.
Some good. Some not so much.
And don’t goes…
@fbherr.bsky.socialI was 11, and I never missed a single episode. They might have started as a TV show, but they quickly became a great and very real band, with fantastic songs and singers. #monkees #mickydolenz #michaelnesmith #petertork #davyjones
@johnfreim333.bsky.socialThe Monkees TV show debuted on Sept 12, 1966. Here’s Micky singing and playing the Moog synthesizer on Daily Nightly that was written by Nesmith. The show concept and the group’s musical evolution is under appreciated by many. #60smusic #Monkees youtu.be/SCWRjWOowkc?...
@whenisbirths.bsky.social#Monkees debuted on US TV tonight, 60 years ago.
@woodstockwhisperer.bsky.socialFollowing #Beatlemania, businesses realized thar's gold in them thar' Baby Boomer musical hills.
And by September 12, 1966 the time was ripe for a created American band aimed at them kids.
Thus the #Monkees.

@rockmusicassoc.bsky.socialIn The Rock 9/9/1965: The Hollywood reporter runs the following advertisement: ‘Madness - folk & roll musicians, singers wanted for acting roles in new TV show. Parts for 4 insane boys’. The Monkees were born. 437 people applied for the job. #Monkees #RockHonorRoll
