'The Monkees' 2013 Tour Dates in US Revealed for 'A Midsummer’s Night With The Monkees' Kicking Off in NY July 15th

"Hey, hey" there's good news for all the "Daydream Believer" fans out there who missed The Monkees reunion tour in 2012.."cheer up" because  they're back!

The 1960's rock/pop band has revealed the tour dates for their upcoming 2013 "A Midsummer's Night With The Monkees" tour. Kicking off July 15th in Port Chester, NY the 3 surviving Monkee members will hit the road for their 24-stop summer tour across North America.

Following their sold out 2012 fall tour, Michael Nesmith, Micky Dolenz, and Peter Tork will return to the concert stage this summer for a reprise, thanks to popular demand, as stated in a Monday press release. The trio will be without their fourth original band-mate: the late Davy Jones.

"The reaction to the last tour was euphoric," Micky Dolenz tells Rolling Stone. "It was pretty apparent there was a demand for another one."

The 2013 show will present the Monkees' songs in chronological order, utilizing archival video and photographs to tell their story. The evening begins with early hits like "Last Train to Clarksville" and "I'm a Believer" before focusing on their 1967 LP Headquarters and then wrapping up with material from their final albums, such as "Pleasant Valley Sunday" and "Listen to the Band," reports Rolling Stone.

The group's reunion tour last year marked the first American concerts with band member Michael Nesmith since he left the group in 1970 and the first without member Davy Jones who passed away in February of 2012. The tour paid much tribute to Jones, who sadly died of a heart attack at age 66, but this year his passing won't be focused on as heavily.

"This time we probably won't lean so heavily on the David situation," says Dolenz. "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."

Rolling Stone states that there are no firm plans beyond these summer dates in America, but Dolenz expressed his desire to keep the tour going in a recent interview. "I can be frank and tell you we are thinking about taking it everywhere," he says. "There's always been interest in Japan, Eurasia and Australia and New Zealand. There's a huge fan base in South America and Brazil in specific, which we've never really tapped into. There's also talk about Europe and the U.K." 

The Monkees, whose mid-1960s TV series and series of hit singles helped the group sell more albums than The Beatles and Rolling Stones combined in 1967, haven't recorded a new album since 1996's JustUs, but that may soon change.

"I'd love to make a new one," says Dolenz. "We haven't had any discussions about that beyond, 'Wouldn't it be cool to have a new one?' We're just taking this whole thing one step at a time."
