Dutchy 0 Posted September 16, 2004 Last wednesday Johnny Ramone died of cancer. For all the youngsters here. The Ramones were the first Punkrock band ever. Even the Sex Pistols looked to them and say: We can do that. They were the basic of all punkmusic what ever made and still is. Only one Ramonebrother is living.

firehawkordy 34 Posted September 16, 2004 Only one Ramonebrother is living. Only one origianal Ramone is left. I was lucky enough to see them at CBGB in 80/81 and they came thru my town on their farewell tour in '95. My ears rang for two days after, it was worth it too. I first heard them in the summer of '77, on the Dr.Demento show. He was the only one to give them national air time. Now every one and their brother follow the road that Joey,Johnny,DeeDee, and Tommy Ramone laid down. Without the Ramones there may never have been alot of todays acts. Even in interviews the new artists list the Ramones, Sex Pistols and the Clash as their influence. HEY HO, LET'S GO!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
