About Me

Hey, my name is Candice and I am the President **Or whatever you call it** of The Monkees Fan Club. I have been a Monkees fan for over 14 years now, so that is more than half my life. I can't imagine a day without The Monkees, so having place's like this to go to make's it so much more enjoyable. I love to meet other Monkee fanatics like myself, just like Ashley, whom I met via-MySpace. She is one of my best friends, and although I have never met her, she is still more than a best friend to me. I also run The Mike Nesmith Fan Club **myspace.com/themikenesmithfanclub** There are some other really cool Monkee fan Clubs too. They will be on the top friends list if you wanna check them all out. I know that they have alot of fun in each of them. I know that we will have alot of fun here too. Thanks everyone.~*Candice*~
Hey there! My name is Ashley, and I am the Vice President of this here fan club. I was honored when Candice asked me to help her out. I am a very passionate fan, as I know many of you out there are. I will do my best on here, and I know we will all have a groovy time. Viva La Monkees! ♥Ashley
