Pynchon

I saw Herman's Hermits in concert. They were on the Monkees' 20th reunion concert tour. That was my first concert. Davy Jones, who I pictured as a 20-year-old cutie (I was 12), was a bit of a letdown as a 40-year-old.
 

katyola: I remember you telling me that. I saw the British shows in 1988/89.

I thought it was quite interesting how the roles of Davy Jones and Peter Tork had swapped around in the intervening years.

Davy Jones capered around like a jester/clown and was, frankly, quite uncool.

On the other hand, Peter Tork had to, literaly, just unbutton his jacket to get the (early 40's) ladies squealing like teenagers.

Great gig.
