The Monkees have announced details of a 24-date North American tour.
The surviving members - Mike Nesmith, Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork - will kick off their tour, called A Midsummer's Night With the Monkees, in New York, on July 15.
"The reaction to the [2012 reunion] tour was euphoric," Dolenz told Rolling Stone. "It was pretty apparent there was a demand for another one."
The Stones’ new compilation, GRRR!, is reviewed in the new issue of Uncut (December 2012, Take 187), out now, so for this week’s archive feature we head back to Uncut’s April 2008 issue (Take 131). Mick Jagger is micro-managing the release of their new, Scorsese-directed concert movie, Shine A Light. Keith Richards is lounging on a Caribbean beach with his dogs. They both find time, however, to tell Uncut about pet hygiene, “fucking crap” modern music and having rebellion thrust upon them. Words: Andrew Mueller
