'''Davy Jones''' ({{Time|December 30}}, {{Time|1945}} - {{Time|February 29}}, {{Time|2012}}; aged {{age|1945|12|30|2012|02|29}}) was a human character who is often mentioned as an oath by characters such as {{Link|Mr. Krabs}} and is also the namesake of "[[Davy Jones' locker]]." In real life, he was a lead singer of the pop rock band {{W|The Monkees}}, and appeared as himself on one occasion. He died of a heart attack resulting from arteriosclerosis on February 29, 2012, at the age of 66.

==Role in series==
His burial site, appropriately titled "Davy Jones' locker," is a place where all bad sea creatures stay in the afterlife, which makes it the underwater equivalent to {{W|Hell}} and the opposite of [[Atlantis]], the underwater equivalent of Heaven.

In "[[SpongeBob SquarePants vs. The Big One]]," Davy makes a live-action appearance with the [[Flying Dutchman]], as he sings a few words of "{{W|Daydream Believer}}," as he was a lead vocalist of ''The Monkees'', the pop rock group whom originally performed the song. His locker is a gym locker, filled with Davy's gym socks, which have a horrid smell.

In "[[Born Again Krabs]]," Mr. Krabs is banished to the locker, but Davy is not there.

"SpongeBob SquarePants vs. The Big One" is his only ever live-action appearance in the series.

In both the episodes "[[The Curse of Bikini Bottom]]" and "[[Krusty Kleaners]]," he appears as a dead skeleton.

==Trivia==
*Davy Jones' locker is an idiom used in real life for the bottom of the sea.
*He and [[Frank (Neptune's advisor)|Frank]] are both male characters debuting in [[season 6]] 22-minute specials and later appearing unexplainedly dead.
**Unlike Davy Jones, though, Frank lacks any real-world counterpart (alive or dead).
***However, Davy Jones' between-episodes {{SBSP}} death predated his real-world death by years.
*He shared the same birthday as his band mate, Michael Nesmith (December 30, 1942 - December 10, 2021). 
*He was the first and only Monkees member to portray himself in the show. 
*As of today, Micky Dolenz is the last surviving member of the band.
