Micky Dolenz | The Magnificent Others with Billy Corgan

Billy Corgan welcomes Micky Dolenz for a conversation that peels back the curtain on a lifetime in show business. Dolenz explains why he always kept “Micky the TV drummer” separate from the real man, explains how the Monkees were a cast before they were a band, surviving the show’s cancelation and watching the Monkees phenomenon roar back when MTV picked up the reruns. Along the way he revisits his Circus Boy childhood, Boyce & Hart songwriting sessions, Mike Nesmith’s push for creative control, and the boundary-breaking film Head that foreshadowed the indie-film revolution. The result is a candid, inside-out look at fame, reinvention, and the craft behind an accidental pop-culture landmark.
