I feel your pain.

Picture it, 1967 and my parents are trying to think of a name for a boy or a girl. Mom suggests that they try to think of one name that would work for a boy or a girl. My sister, who was then 7 years old says, "What about Mickey?" Her favorite show was The Monkees so yes, I am named after a Monkee. Mickey Dolenz.

Hey, hey, I'm a Monkee. People say I Monkee around. I'm to busy singing, to put anybody down.
