I've never been one to chase awards or anything like that, to be honest.
From Micky Dolenz
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not a public democratic organization; it's a private club basically. It's like a private golf club and they decide who they're going to let in the club.
In 1962 I was 17, so I was definitely watching the dance shows on television.
There was never any pressure on me to go into the business, but I was always aware of it. I'd go on the set with my father and he and my mother would always be singing.
I had piano lessons at five and started guitar at ten, but although music and acting was always around me, my parents never pressured me into it.
After high school I was going to be an architect. In fact, I was studying to be an architect when the audition for 'The Monkees' came along.
No matter how tired I am, I can only sleep for four hours at a time.
I am extremely lucky; I've never been ill - although about 20 years ago I broke my right arm hang gliding.
Ever since I was a kid, I've had an enormous interest in the sciences - everything from quantum physics to anthropology.
Writing is a great love of mine.
