How sad.

I believe he was suppose to perform again this year at the Flower show concert series in EPCOT.

I'm heartbroken. We see him every year at Epcot.

How sad.

Yes, I think so. That was my first thought when I saw the news on our local news facebook feed.

Im still a Daydream Believer. Im not a homecoming queen though.

This makes me so sad. I had such a crush on him in my tween years.

Oh, how sad!!

We saw him a few years back at the Epcot Flower Power concerts. He had a great show, and seemed to really enjoy interacting with the crowd.

DS just sang "I'm A Believer" with his choir - they did a 60's theme for their Pops concert.

Davy Jones was the first person I ever saw in concert. He played with Mickey in Manhattan and my older sister brought me. It must have been in the 70s sometime.

NO! Feels like a piece of my childhood died too... I am part of a puppet group and on Saturday we will be performing (among other songs) 'I'm a Believer' - that's going to be bittersweet now.

This is so sad.......I have been humming a medly of Monkees songs since I read on Facebook. I was actually a little disappointed that I wasn't going to be at Epcot at the time he was suppose to do the Flower Power concert.

First concert I ever went to was the Monkees in 1987 (Weird "Al" opened for them). I was already a fan of theirs from the reruns I saw of their show. After seeing them Live I became a lifelong fan.

Sad to hear about Davy today. Puts a real damper on an already dreary day. RIP Daydream Believer.

I just heard on the radio about Davy Jones and I was so looking forward to seeing him at Epcot this year. So sad!

I grew up watching The Monkees and just loved them! I even won tickets to see them in concert - I was definitely more excited than DH!

RIP Davy - you will be missed!

 

[Purple Nightshade]

So very sad. He was alot of fun on to watch on stage.

 

[CarolinaBlue]

This really makes me sad. I always missed him at Epcot because my vacation dates never worked out with his appearances. RIP Davy
