It is always interesting to postulate what they would be doing if they hadn't done 'The Monkees'. Mike would still have inherited his Mum's money and would thus still have the wealth to indulge his every whim, as he does now. But I agree it is a shame he has a problem with the 'M' word! 'The Monkees' was a first rate piece of entertainment and they can all be proud of their achievements with it. For all Mike's talent, being in the Monkees allowed him to mix with his peer group of musicians of the time, to learn acting, production skills and how to deal with the media all of which allowed him to learn and enhance his natural aptitude and enrichen <g> his life! For my money, the only one who is doing what he would have done if he hadn't been in The Monkees, is Peter. But Mike is Nez and has his own demons. I think the M word he has a problem with is himself.
