MODEST MOUSE
modestmouse.com
We’ve been following Modest Mouse’s rise to the top of the charts since the 90s. When they really hit it big time, they even hired famed-Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr to write some of their now-classic songs like “Dashboard” and “Missed the Boat”. That record with Marr, We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank was the first Modest Mouse album to reach #1 in the US Billboard 200 Charts.
We got a few chances to see Modest Mouse live, the last time was in June 2015 and we noted: “…there was a question of being rusty or not, and singer Isaac Brock had revealed that he had somehow sprained his ankle at the hotel the night before. Both mysteries were revealed (no, not rusty, and too tight sheets, apparently) and Modest Mouse played a crowd-pleasing 70 min. set to the faithful that had been waiting these many years to see them again live.”
With concerts slowing coming back to America, Modest Mouse announced their 2021 tour dates, all in support of their new album The Golden Casket (available June 25th via Epic Records).

THE MONKEES
monkees.com
The two surviving The Monkees band members, Micky Dolenz and Michael Nesmith, have reunited to go on The Monkees Farewell Tour in 2021. It’s interesting to see Nesmith back on tour, considering that after he inherited his mother’s estate and ultimately retired from the road (he declined to join The Monkees 20th Anniversary Tour)… but considering that Peter Tork died in 2019 and Davy Jones died in 2012 - now is probably the best (and only time) for Nesmith to make amends to Monkees fans.
We’re obviously big fans, everyone around our age watched The Monkees television show. When we saw Dolenz and Tork in May 2017, we were surprised to learn that the actors were actually seasoned musicians and were eager to play their own instruments (but the show and record label hired session musicians instead).
The duo promised “a magical night of music: all the hits, deep cuts & fan favorites”.
