"The Monkees were planning a comeback tour before Davy Jones died, bandmate Peter Tork has revealed.  The singer passed away on Wednesday (February 29) after suffering a fatal heart attack.   Discussing his friend&amp;#039;s sudden death, Tork claimed that the pair had recently been &amp;quot;emailing each other&amp;quot; about reuniting with Monkees colleagues Micky Dolenz and Michael Nesmith for a series of concerts. &amp;quot;We were looking forward to more tours. But those won&amp;#039;t happen - at least not with Davy,&amp;quot; The Mirror quotes him as saying.  &amp;quot;Before this terrible news Davy and I were emailing each other so we could make the new tour happen.&amp;quot;  Tork said that he had last seen Jones during The Monkees&amp;#039; 45th Anniversary tour in the summer of 2011, which was cut short due to alleged &amp;quot;internal group issues and conflicts.&amp;quot; The 70-year-old insisted that the cancellation was caused by what he called &amp;quot;a glitch in our business department&amp;quot;.  Addressing his bandmate&amp;#039;s passing earlier this week, Dolenz said that the news had come &amp;quot;right out of the blue&amp;quot; and described Jones as &amp;quot;like [his] brother&amp;quot;. Nesmith has also paid tribute to Jones, saying in a statement to fans: &amp;quot;That David has stepped beyond my view causes me the sadness that it does many of you. I will miss him, but I won&amp;#039;t abandon him to mortality... David&amp;#039;s spirit and soul live well in my heart.&amp;quot;  &amp;gt; Davy Jones 1945-2012: The Monkees&amp;#039; greatest songs - video Watch The Monkees in the video for &amp;#039;I&amp;#039;m A Believer&amp;#039; below:      View Davy Jones&amp;#039;s life in pictures below: "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
