Monkees will miss funeral of Davy Jones

The three surviving Monkees have agreed not to attend Davy Jones's funeral this week because it would bring unwanted attention to his family.

Micky Dolenz said that he, Peter Tork and Michael Nesmith may instead attend one of the memorials that Jones's family is planning. Whether they would perform at any of the gatherings was still under discussion.

Jones, 66, died from a heart attack last week.
