>Within weeks of the release of More of the Monkees, Nesmith lobbied successfully with the group's creators, Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider, for the Monkees to be allowed to play their instruments on future records, effectively giving the quartet artistic control. To make his point clear to Kirshner, who was balking at the idea, Nesmith proceeded to punch a hole in the wall of a suite at the Beverly Hills Hotel during a group meeting with Kirshner and Colgems lawyer Herb Moelis, declaring to the latter: "That could have been your face!". This outburst came after Moelis snapped to Nesmith, "You'd better read your contract", when Nesmith threatened to quit. Kirshner was later dropped from the project altogether

Fun Fact: Did you know that Sugar Sugar was originally slated to be a Monkees song?
Mike Nesmith was so against it, that after Don Kirshner left, he got together a fictitious group that consisted of studio musicians and named them The Archies and got them to do it.
>And yet people don't even know who Don Dante is............
