Some people are on the pitch, they think @DevonDeathTrip's top of the DDP... he is now!

 

Yes I am.  I've just taken a screenshot of the leaderboard, as this might never happen again.  Condolences to Mr Tork's family aside, I can't tell you how happy this makes me :)

Indeed.  Tork replaced Leah Bracknell in my squad.  I'm not the most patient of deadpoolers.

 

Now where on Earth is that obit for Bernice McCabe?

Hard to believe that half of the Monkees  have died. Here is Peter in his heyday http://www.brooklynvegan.com/the-monkees-peter-tork-rip/ 

 

I can only assume that God is being mightily entertained in heaven . what with Elvis, Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin ,half of the Beatles, and now half of the Monkees !

 

yet another part of my childhood  has been ripped away ! :(

Mrs Biblio very upset. She was such a big fan she even had some of their solo albums.

He co-wrote For Pete's Sake which saw action as the opening track on several episodes of the TV show

 

Oh aye, and he's finally broken the duck on my DDP line up

Think my money would be on Dolenz to go next based on this. Nesmith looks a bit Mr Burns ish.

Any chance of Tippexing that out? 

 

Jeezus, I was a fan of his woolly hat and his total seeing lack of interest in the latter stages of the show!

Mickey Dolenz responds to the news: "Hey Hey I'm The Monkee".

 

Sorry couldn't resist.

Yeah, if I'd seen this footage of Nesmith from last month I'd definitely have pencilled him in for 2022:

Really sad news. Wasn't on my radar other than in a general '60s pop stars are all getting on a bit now' way. RIP.

 

Looks like the Fabs will outlive the Prefabs.

Sad news but geniunely surprised in the vast array of names on the DDP that nobody picked him unless I am mistaken?

I was a bit surprised as well that he wasn’t picked.

Three of the four 'other Prefabs' are alive - Dirk, Stig and Barry.

 

Nezza was great, both in the Monkees and solo.  One of my favourites of his songs...

Any guessing how long the sole surviving Monkee will dodge the Reaper? Certainly an endangered species.

Bold Prediction. The elusive remaining Beatles will go extinct before the Monkee does
