I bought Davy's book,
Davy Jones "They Made a Monkee Out of Me" back in the late 80s. (I have an autographed copy around here...somewhere) and I seem to remember reading in the book that he was in Sullivan Theatre the same night the Beatles were there.
I believe the story. I also prefer the Monkees over the Beatles. I thought the Monkees were more fun, but then, I didnt discover the Monkees till they had their reunion in the mid-80s. Never cared for the Beatles.
