(Saturday, December 6, 1969, 7:00 p.m. MDT) — The Monkees (Micky Dolenz, Davy Jones and Michael Nesmith) performed their last concert together tonight at the Salt Palace in Salt Lake City, Utah, before an audience of 8,223.
In November, Nesmith had begun to make it known that he would be departing The Monkees over the next several months to form a new group, which would become The First National Band.
Dolenz and Jones confirmed that they would continue as The Monkees for any remaining projects. The duo released the album Changes in June 1970, but by the end of that year, they had decided to call it a day.
Nesmith would not perform again as a Monkee until 1986.
