Monkee's video w/ Uni's???

General

A thread before reminded me of the monkee’s vide where they all rode unicycles side by each. It looked like there were 2 training wheels on the back of each (making them tricyles)

Does anyone know the name of this video?

So far in my search, the key words have only uncovered this. It’s odd. Quite odd. http://www.swingmachine.org/thunderwheels/read.html#monkees

I am extremely interested in the unicycles (tricycles) ridden in the above-mentioned Monkee’s video. Does anyone know the whereabouts of a picture of these vehicles?

Do you have any idea if it was

  1. A Monkees Music Video
  2. A bit from the Monkees TV show
  3. “Head”, the Monkees movie (co-written by Jack Nicholson, egad!)

mind you, #1&2 are not mutually exclusive considering the TV show was just a bunch of sketches with music videos shoehorned in between.

Anyway, if you could narrow it down, that might help. I just went ahead and bumped “Head” up to #1 in my Netflix rental queue, so I should see it in a few weeks. I’ll let you know if there are any uni-things.

I believe it was a video clip shown on a commercial that was advertising a new 60’s collection. I’m not positive though. I’m not familiar too well with the Monkee’s work, so I couldn’t even tell you what song it was. Or what 60’s collection.

Those were not unicycles… they were more like skate-bikes with a cool mag
wheel. There was an episode in the '60’s T.V. show where they rode them.

I have a few Monkee’s collector cards (like hockey cards) where they are
pictured on them. I will look for them and post a picture.

Darren and Bruce,

Hah, go figure… I have some of those monkeys cards too that show the unis from the bubble gum way back, when. I had them before our move in February, but not sure where they ended up.

I don’t have access to a scanner any more since school finished, though.
