In Honor Of Peter Tork

I was crazy about The Monkees when they broke out.  I was a huge Beatles fan, but about the time the Monkees TV show debuted, The Beatles were in something of a hiatus.
The Monkees were formed for a TV show, but I didn't care.  I was totally excited to get their first album.  Then their second.  I finally got "Headquarter", a birthday present.
The Monkees were a foursome like the Beatles, but could never compare.
I would take a short notice when the Monkees would tour, but had no desire to see them.  I was pretty much not a fan after the Beatle resumed releasing records.
I was saddened a few years ago to hear of the passing of Davy Jones and now Peter Tork is also gone.
I took this picture at the Hard Rock  Hotel And Casino in Stateline, Nevada.

I took a picture of that display too! It was so nice to see that the Hard Rock Cafe would give that kind of honor to the Monkees. They certainly deserve the recognition - and much more.
