Title: myRecordFantasy, featuring Mickey Dolenz
Post by: heliumsocket on September 17, 2011, 08:39:56 PM

myRecordFantasy: a 13-part YouTube reality series wherein amateur musicians (and non-musicians) pay $5,000 to have a fantasy band camp weekend with Mr. Dolenz.

Featuring multiple tambourinists.

Did this ever get discussed on The Best Show? Or was the fruit deemed too low-hanging?

Do we get to see Mickey set up his drum kit at any point?

Show a little respect for the seventh greatest singing drummer in rock history.

I kinda love how they manage to not say a single word about his drumming abilities.

My favorite singing drummer is John Garner from Sir Lord Baltimore who could sing like a feral banshee and drum like a maniac simultaneously.

Typical rockist myopia where non-white people are concerned. What about Sammy?
