LOS ANGELES--(Business Wire)--
On March 22, David Cassidy presents The World`s Greatest Teen Idols in concert
at the Theatre at Westbury featuring David, Peter Noone (Herman`s Hermits) and
Micky Dolenz (Monkees). This is the beginning of a year-long tour of the United
States that will include venues from New York to California. 

Audiences will be reminded of the highlights of their youth through the
songbooks of their lives with the hits from these three stars. David, Micky and
Peter have a total of 42 charted songs and together have sold over 250 million
records! And now they`re together on stage for the very first time. Audiences
will hear "I Think I Love you," "Last Train to Clarksville," "There's a Kind of
Hush" and many more classic and timeless hits that have transcended three
generations over five decades. 

They have more in common than meets the eye - each started his illustrious
career on television, David on "The Partridge Family," Micky on "The Monkees"
and Peter on the British soap opera "Coronation Street." As young lads, they
each then became singing sensations. Peter became known as Herman of Herman`s
Hermits, which spawned such hits as "I`m Into Something Good" "Mrs. Brown,
you`ve Got A Lovely Daughter", "I`m Henry VIII, I Am", "Silhouettes", "Can`t You
Hear My Heartbeat", "Wonderful World", "There`s A Kind of Hush", "Listen
People", and many more. Herman`s Hermits sold over 80 million recordings. In
all, fourteen singles and seven albums went gold. The Hermits were twice named
Cashbox`s "Entertainer of the Year". 

Monkees` hits on which Micky sang lead vocals included "Last Train to
Clarksville," "Pleasant Valley Sunday," "I'm a Believer," "I`m Not Your Stepping
Stone" and, of course, "The Monkees" theme song. Other hits include "Daydream
Believer" and "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You." The Monkees achieved their
greatest success as recording artists selling in excess of 65 million units and
achieving worldwide fame. Their first four albums, "The Monkees," "More of the
Monkees," "Headquarters," and "Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones, Ltd."
reached number one on the charts. After the Emmy Award winning Monkees show
ended, Micky went on to become a successful writer, producer and director and
has enjoyed starring on Broadway and on London`s West End. 

David saw success both as "The Partridge Family" and as a solo artist with hits
that included "I Woke Up in Love This Morning," "C`mon Get Happy," "Cherish," "I
Write the Songs," "Doesn`t Somebody Want To Be Wanted," "Breaking Up Is Hard To
Do," "Could It Be Forever," "How Can I Be Sure," "Rock Me Baby," and his
trademark song "I Think I Love You." Ten albums by The Partridge Family and five
solo albums were produced during the show and many more thereafter. His concert
in New York's Madison Square Garden sold out in less than 30 minutes, an
all-time record (without the existence of the Internet!) and resulted in riots.
His concert tours of the UK included six sellout concerts at Wembley Stadium
over one weekend in 1973. In Australia in 1974, the mass hysteria was such that
there were calls to have him deported from the country, especially after the
madness at his record-breaking 73,000 audience concert at Melbourne Cricket
Grounds. He continued to act, receiving an Emmy nomination for "Police Story." 

David was selected as one of People`s Magazine`s Sexiest Men, VH1 selected Peter
as their viewer`s choice for the "Sexiest Artist of the Year." 

In addition to performing in concert, Micky, Peter and David have continued
their acting careers on television, in film and on the theatre stage on
Broadway, national tours and in the UK. The three men remain teen idols to their
throngs of fans in America and around the world.
