the following is from a message that Fishof sent me, not sure about the email address it's coming from, but it was verified by DFP earlier this afternoon so I guess it's ok. You can tell he really put a lot of time and thought into this one, which is why it did not come from his personal email account...someone else probably write it up on his behalf....anyway, I would like to see what you all think about this. --Webby ------------------------------ From: AnnaDFP@aol.com | Block Address Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2001 18:18:44 EDT Subject: PETER TORK - MONKEES TOUR 2001 - David Fishof To: PTLVR718@webtv.net, StacyR@davyjones.zzn.com, chrislang@webtv.net, Papsy88@aol.com, BAND6US@yahoo.com, Mickys411@aol.com, FairyOfTheLocket@aol.com, sandauer@earthlink.net, abrahammy@earthlink.com thenomadicsoul, August 5, 2001 Dear Fan, I appreciate your concern regarding The Monkees and Peter Tork's recent departure from the band. I’m hoping this letter will clear up some apparent misconceptions. The fact remains that Peter Tork made the decision mid-tour to resign from the band due to personal conflicts (as he reported to MONKEES FANZINE). Simultaneously, Micky Dolenz and I were working on securing a film project for The Monkees and received an offer for a “Monkee Movie.” Peter declined to be a part of this project. I personally approached Peter numerous times during the tour to try to get him to reconsider leaving the band. I was unsuccessful and felt totally rejected. As a long time professional in this business, I feel that Davy Jones and Micky Dolenz have been put their best efforts forward in performing each concert on this tour. Their energy and chemistry on stage is truly remarkable. My opinion is Peter’s decision was driven by his ambition to further pursue his other projects. He was unconcerned about the effect his departure would have on Davy, Micky the other band members, the crew - not to mention the fans. The fact that Davy and Micky elected to terminate Peter a few shows before the end of their US dates was because they need establish anew show with a new format and layout. Please remember, Peter chose to leave. Davy and Micky are still dedicated to their fans and look forward to bringing all of you the best show they’ve ever done. Warm regards, David Fishof ----------------------------------- --Webby@DJForever
