The 2012 reunion tour marked the first time Nesmith had played with the band since 1997, when he appeared on some UK dates, and the first time he’s played with the group on American soil since 1970, when he left the Monkees.

For this tour, the band intend to perform their sets in chronological order. Speaking about the death of Davy Jones in February 12, Dolenz admitted, “This time we probably won’t lean so heavily on the David situation. I think we have to move on. Everybody has to move on. He’ll always be remembered and acknowledged, but possibly not as much as on that particular tour. We will, of course, still perform ‘Daydream Believer‘ and all the other hits.”
