In the fall of 1965, Micky was one of 400 applicants who responded to a trade ad that announced auditions for a new TV show about a rock band. The Monkees' debut single, "Last Train to Clarksville," hit the charts on September 10, 1966 and rocketed swiftly to #1. Two days later, The Monkees series debuted on NBC to immediate success. Micky and his fellow ?TV bandmates? actually went on to become a real live rock band that first toured North America from late December 1966 to May 1967.
