A drunk Davy Jones wasn’t monkeying around when he challenged an entire bar audience to fight him after giving an impromptu singing performance.
The ex lead singer of the Monkees was drunk, according to an eyewitness, when he had his public meltdown at the Edison Hotel bar in Sunbury, Pennsylvania on December 11.
Jones, 63, was with his new wife Jessica Pacheco, 32, when he surprised a crowd of about 30 by showing up with his band to sing at the bar, which is near his home.
But it quickly turned into a bizarre scene as Davy, holding a drink, began singing while looking like he was going to keel over, according to eyewitnesses.
He stopped his performance for no apparent reason, mid-song and began cursing the audience! One person who was there said, Davy wandered into the crowd and said, “F*** you. You look half dead. I’ll fight you outside you f****”
Incredibly, the band kept playing!
His wife, who had cheered him earlier, tried to take the microphone away from him and Davy ended up throwing it across the room.
Davy still tours and in recent years has harshly criticizd former Monkee bandmates Peter Tork, Mickey Dolenz and Mike Nesmith.
Oh, and for the record, he was in the middle of Daydream Believer when he lost it!
The band should NEVER stop playing. It just elevates the situation. Good for them.
And looking every day of it, lol

By the looks of it, old Davey must be one happy Monkey, spanked or not.
I was going to reply with a clever comment but no way I can top this.
Thanks my first laugh of the day!

one says Davey was drunk before he even started singing.
Not surprising that something like this would happen in Sunbury.
But in those days teen girls thought he was just the cutest and he could go to a party and have the pick of the candy store.
What kind of criticism was he leveling at all three band-mates?
Was this band actually really playing their instruments as opposed to the T.V. show band?
She sort of does, according to tabloid reports. She's been accused of domestic violence against him.
He wasn’t going to be the audience’s stepping stone...
“Hey, hey, we’re the Drunkies
We’re always staggering around
And we’re to busy puking
To worry about our sound”
He challenged them to a fight? Good grief, he was a jockey before he was a Monkee. He’s only about 5’3”.
Hehehehe:)
