MAY 17, 1968

Production on The Monkees' motion picture HEAD was completed after a 3-month, 2-day shoot, with the staged “Circle Sky” concert sequence filmed and recorded before a live audience at The Valley Auditorium in Saly Lake City, Utah.

For the staged concert for filming, which took place at 1 p.m., PR officer Floyd Ackerman, who previously geared up The Monkees' summer 1967 tour, spent a week stirring up interest and ensured an open-arms heliport welcome for the band. Radio KCPX 105.7 FM were given 4,000 free tickets to distibute to fans, precipitating a response so huge that a "bonus" concert was immediately scheduled, for which 5,000 more passes were handed out. After wrapping up shooting the movie with the concert sequence, The Monkees played that bonus concert (which ran 45 minutes) later that very evening at the Lagoon Park Amusement Theatre as a token of appreciation to the kids of Salt Lake City. These turned out to be the very last concerts in America The Monkees ever played as a quartet.
