not gonna complain about a 60's classic on a Friday, but I will note that this set is less than 3 months old (Oct 24 last year).

Agreed, but at least tradition is being adhered to.

no, but I guess you know that's where he got the song title -- from the giant "MONY" (Mutual of NY) sign in Manhattan.

Tommy James has said that, yes, he was inspired by seeing the Mutual of New York sign atop their NYC HQ.
