Weird, I just read Johnny Ramone's book and he said he only had four girlfriends in his life. I guess he could have omitted girls he met on the road, but he also said the girlfriends came on tour a lot.
1) Learn proper English. 2) Fuck you. 3) I actually do have a life, thank you. 4) The only reason I had really went there was because I got stabbed a few weeks earlier, and my friends wanted to treat me to something. 5) So what if I've never been to a punk show? Is it my fault I don't have enough money?
I went to my local airport once here in Brazil to see him embark. I talked to him a little. He was here for a concert. 20 years ago or so. He's was nice to me.
@@blastofo lol what tf does getting paid to write a song have anything to do with someone liking it?? He listens to the song and likes it. Fuck off with that childish elitist music mentality
he was such a goofball, I think it was hard to think of him as any sort of great creative mind. The Ramones was somewhat unique in its ultra-collaborative nature, though.
Marky is by far the most vocal and clear person in the Ramones. He always seems to be in the moment and very diplomatic when it comes to the Ramones and his own story.
I think he meant he wasn't cut out for actually working on Wallstreet and floor trading, or maybe just with the kind of person he was before the band it was an unlikely avenue.
I saw the howard stern interview with Ramones from 1996 I think, where Joey mentioned buying Microsoft and Intel stock. And if u bought those companies in 1996 you woulda made a killing.
I spoke with Marky , twice. He tells great stories. The second time was like an interview. He was very candid , but , he did'nt speak poorly of anyone. So , he's got a wig , BFD, THE WIG DOES'NT PLAY DRUMS OR TELL GREAT STORIES. Johnny was also a great Elvis and John Wayne collector. THEY ALL LOVED HORROR AND SCI FI. Marky loves mid-60's bands , particularly Paul Revere and The Raiders. I think they were all fans of Love , too.......
R.I.P JOEY, JOHNNY AND DEEDEE ... You all are forever missed. Thank you for all the words, music and songs. You may be gone but your music lives forever. Love you guys, N8knox
I remember like it was yesterday, hearing the Ramones first album blaring out of this kid Stu's room at UMass on a beautiful spring Saturday in 1977. "What the hell is that ?", I asked him.....lol. I had never heard anything close to it, they were so unique. Fell in love with them that day.
Marky's autobiography is a great read. Better than most rock and roll memoirs. Johnny comes off as pretty mean and nasty- especially towards Joey. Not to mention stealing Joey's girlfriend which broke his heart. Joey was a walking OCD nightmare. Holy shit. You gotta read it to believe how bad he had it. Dee Dee would steal anything - even from his own band mates.
+James Morris it's easy to feel sorry for Joey. The guy had oodles of mental/emotional issues not to mention physical problems when he was younger. But he was basically a good guy. Johnny, on the other hand, ruled the band with an iron fist. And being the leader, it fell to him to take care of a lot of the band logistics, something Joey and Dee weren't capable of. Johnny was a hard ass to the end, refusing to even call Joey when Joey was dying of cancer.
crazyfeline I did read that Johnny actually did approach Joey, after he found out he had cancer, and asked him how he was doing. Joey's response was like "What do you care", and that was that. I think I read it in Monte Melnick's book. There was definitely no love loss between them, that's for sure!
Lisa Lightning, some ppl are always making derogatory comments about Marky's hair ? I think he looks good for his age. Besides about 90 % of dark skin females where some kind of wig or weave every day and I bet none of these ppl would call them out to their face about it?
Well, don't feel too bad about it. There are thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, maybe MILLIONS of Ramones fans in the world... and they all take 'Ramone' for their last name! Cheers, Mikey Ramone.
Johnny enjoyed collecting posters for science fiction films and autographed photos of popular athletes, Dee Dee was very unpredictable and would do and say things that you would not expect, he was also a very good song writer and had a child-like spirit
Always caught their yearly summer show at the Club Casino in Hampton New Hampshire, which was "general seating" at the time....me and three of my friends would arrive 4 hours early and get front row right in front of Dee Dee and yell "Jump Dee Dee Jump!" .... he'd interact with us through the whole show, Joey too. Good times
One thing I didn’t know about Joey is that he had Marfan’s syndrome. That’s why he looked so cartoonish. But what a perfect way to look for the frontman of the first punk band ever. And what a voice!
@@AsukaLangleyS02 nothing is wrong with the pistols. They are/were a great band. I've a lot of admiration for cook/jones/matlock. Love the professionals and neurotic outsiders. But for lydon to have a go at marky is bang out of order and pure ignorance. Lydon wasn't a original pistol or has he forgotten that? Marky has just as or maybe more pedigree than lydon.
Hard to believe all four of the original Ramones are gone. I'm glad we still got Marky, though. Marky was an original member of the NYC punk scene and was with the band from '78 until the end (except for a few albums mid-period).
Aw, this is sweet. Joey did like girls and he liked a drink, too. He took me to Great Gildersleeves for drinks cuz he knew the bartender and didn't have to pay there. He was really nice, and cute! I don't remember him as being super tall or super skinny but he didn't have terrific posture, ha ha! He wasn't rude, grabby, or stuck up. It was an exciting drinks date, ha ha ha! Uprated.
Even though Johnny really disliked Joey, he acknowledged how great of a singer he was. If Joey was average, Johnny would have replaced him. But he knew he was irreplaceable.
I saw them on the Brain Drain tour, and again on Acid Eaters, both in Birmingham. The Brain Drain show was particularly awesome because it was at Sloss Furnace, with all the tin walls and pipes winding through the place. After the show me and my buddy bumped into the Ramones in a convenience store. I still have the autographed poster.
Kevin Sting lol, they all dye their hair and wear wigs. I think joey wore a wig in the late years. I know the stones, lol they're like 75 and have black hair
@@KevinSting - Dude..how could you not tell that that thing was not a wig? hehe Maybe your are not a 'hair guy', that that hairpiece is super obvious. Although, it is definitely a pricey wig. hehe
You're lucky! It would have been cool to have had a couple of drinks with Joey Ramone. I wasn't the legal age to drink when he passed away unfortunately. I was 20 years old when he died. He passed the day after my birthday.
I don’t know why everytime Marky is mentioned somebody has to always bring up his wig. Who gives a fuck if he wears one and if it makes him feel more comfortable then so be it. Enough already about his fucking wig, Marky is a badass and so is his wig and he’ll always be remembered and he’s in the rock ‘n’ roll hall of fame, what have you people that make fun of his wig ever did that is even remotely close to what he’s accomplished?
THANKS Loudwire !! It's old for me now , sorry !! But i don't look this before !! :) :) :) !! And sorry for my english-kill ,, :D ,, i'm french !! LOL !!! Don't forget the RAMONES Band !!! ;) !!
Ah, well, booze is no good, Joey had a huge problem with it for years. The age was only 18 when I was in NY but I was 20 when my "had a drink with Joey" event occured, it was legal for me then. I think I caught him walking North from an apt he shared with Dee Dee at that time. It was right by CBGB but he definitely did not come out of there. I spotted him a little South of there. I thought, NY can be so cool! (Generally it was not a nice place to live in those days, yecch!) xo
If he wasn't the lead singer of one of the greatest bands in the world and famous, would you still think he's dreamy? I mean, if you passed him on the street, would you still think the same thing? Tell the truth... : )
I always thought Marky pounded those skins like a cave man. It is overused but Dee Dee...fine line between genius and madness. THE creative force behind the Ramones. I don't think he nearly gets the credit due and often dismissed because he was high a lot. Many many band, not mentioning any names Green Day, copied or learned to play to his base riffs.
yhn1inc Dee Dee...art imitating life. His book describes a pretty bad childhood. Joey didn't seem to have it much better. His mom describes an incident where he came home from middle school with a shoe print on his chest. Taking a sour lemon and making it a living art.
Marky, what's the word on your book man? I've googled it and Amazon doesn't have shit. Before i leave this fucking earth i gotta hear your side and i truly wish Tommy would write a book.
Seriously though, I do appreciate how Marky doesn't talk shit or disparage his former bandmates. And if, in the interest of telling the truth, he must say something that could be perceived as unfavorable, he will follow it up by giving them some kind of credit and tie it into their personality flaws. Class act, Marky.
I get the feeling that the virtual band Gorillaz was heavily based on the Ramones and the Sex Pistols. But more so the Ramones than the Sex Pistols. Except for the blue hair thing, 2D is almost exactly like Joey because 2D is really tall, really skinny, had weird eyes which caused an impairment in this vision, he also had similar mental and physical impairments and 2D never forgave Murdoc for shagging his girl friend in the toilet, Steve Jones style, and then kicking her out of the band. Merdoc is a cross between Johnny, Dee Dee and Steve Jones because Murdoc is a real douche bag to everybody especially 2D, who he tortures on a regular basis. Also Merdoc would steal anything from anybody and he met 2D when he attempted to steal a truck load of keyboards for his new band. Although Noodle is female and she was 10 years old when she joined Gorillaz, she is an amazing songwriter and she wrote a lot of their songs. Where Russel is like Tommy besides the fact that both Tommy and Russel are amazing drummers is that the Ramones originated In New York and Tommy was from Hungry while Gorillaz originated in London and Russel was from NYC.
Joey Ramone always reminded me of a 6 foot 5 stick insect with a big wig and sunglassess sorta mixed with that dude from the big fish movie and the devils rejects Matthew McGrory
I met those guys after a show in 91. I always thought Joey was really tall, because he looked like it in the photos. He was my height exactly(6'3"). He just looked hyper-tall in the photos because the other guys were all shorter than him, plus Joey was extremely long-legged. I stood there and talked to him for several minutes, and even though we were the same height, his legs came up about level with my bellybutton.

Lots of respect for Marky. He defends the Ramones. This is it.
Except CJ Ramone Lol
Interviews of CJ he spoke highly of the band.
@@blastofo he meant that Marky had beef with CJ, cuz CJ dated his niece
@@sidvicious4760 and got her pregnant at a young age
That’s some wig he keeps wearing
" a lot of people looked at him like he was a a freak and uh who's that guy? but yknow what? fuck them. Y'know he won in the end, he had a lot of girlfriends, he had a great career "
That just inspired the rest of my existence
Gotta love the bands that never got respect!! We know the truth!!! #PunkRules
"Joey had a lot of girlfriends"
"Johnny had a lot of girlfriends too"
Pretty sure we already knew they had that in common, at least one in particular.
CJ Ryan he had both bro
Shut up never disrespect thin even in the slightest way
NotFraser no u
Weird, I just read Johnny Ramone's book and he said he only had four girlfriends in his life. I guess he could have omitted girls he met on the road, but he also said the girlfriends came on tour a lot.
Kevin Wheeler 1 2 3 4!
I met Marky one time at ComicCon at Rhode Island, and he was really cool. He was just like this there, and it was pretty funny.
1) Learn proper English.
2) Fuck you.
3) I actually do have a life, thank you.
4) The only reason I had really went there was because I got stabbed a few weeks earlier, and my friends wanted to treat me to something.
5) So what if I've never been to a punk show? Is it my fault I don't have enough money?
Tyler Bonenfant Do you like, not have 5 bucks?
Tyler Bonenfant i met him last year at ComicCon

I went to my local airport once here in Brazil to see him embark. I talked to him a little. He was here for a concert. 20 years ago or so. He's was nice to me.
Pet Semetary is my all time favorite song by Ramones. Cool to know Dee Dee came up with it in only 40 minutes.
Same.
Yesss,mine as well
Your fav Ramones song is one they were paid to write for a movie? Thats wack as hell dude.
@@blastofo Who said they were paid? They were paid to put on a concert for King, but not to write the song.
@@blastofo lol what tf does getting paid to write a song have anything to do with someone liking it?? He listens to the song and likes it. Fuck off with that childish elitist music mentality
Dee Dee was such an amazing songwriter. He doesn't get any credit or recognition whatsoever....well, outside of us Ramones fans. Such a shame.
The other Ramones could not believe how easily and fast Dee Dee could write songs. One day he wrote 8 songs and played them for the others.
Johnny Thunders sure appreciated Chinese rocks
@@hyzercreek Such amazing guy.. I Love DD
wrote pet semetary infront of stephen kin in like an hour
he was such a goofball, I think it was hard to think of him as any sort of great creative mind. The Ramones was somewhat unique in its ultra-collaborative nature, though.
Marky is by far the most vocal and clear person in the Ramones. He always seems to be in the moment and very diplomatic when it comes to the Ramones and his own story.
Probably because he came later
Joey was actually very successful in the stock market and gave brilliant advice to people who were able to make enough to last them a lifetime.
I think he meant he wasn't cut out for actually working on Wallstreet and floor trading, or maybe just with the kind of person he was before the band it was an unlikely avenue.
I saw the howard stern interview with Ramones from 1996 I think, where Joey mentioned buying Microsoft and Intel stock. And if u bought those companies in 1996 you woulda made a killing.

....and Tommy
"Dee Dee wrote Pet Semetary in 40 minutes" CLASSIC!!!!!!!!
Gotta love how this guy still looks like a Ramone to this day
This man is a class act. Great drummer. He beat his problem. He preserves the legacy. Enough said
When I was 11 I had the biggest crush on Joey.
fuck, I'm a dude and not even remotely gay and I HAVE a big crush on Joey!
Kewl :D
Deffgfh
Yea , still crushing on him👁👄👁
Ew

Well spoken Marky..Positive and nice!
Marky Ramone, one of the greatest drummer in the world, great person.
Reading Marky's book right now. Seems like a well-adjusted guy.
I absolutely love the Ramones. Pity the original members are all gone. RIP TO THE ORIGINAL FOUNDERS OF PUNK ROCK
He sounds very gracious and like a good friend, even with guys who were difficult.

great to see a nice, intelligent person interviewing a Ramone... and is that it?
Marky is a real bro.
Marky is soooooo taking the high road here...
Cool Interview
Beautifully said Marky
Jeffrey Ross Hyman is the greatest singer in Rock history. Any discussion of The Ramones should start there.
Tony Lombardo Robert Plant*** you mean
Liam Gallagher?
Obviously Freddie Mercury. Joey was essential, but it wouldn't have worked without all of them. They were a real BAND.
Paul McCartney disagrees.
Even though Johnny really disliked Joey, he acknowledged how great of a singer he was. If Joey was average, Johnny would have replaced him. But he knew he was irreplaceable.
Damn I wish I could have seen the ramones live.😭
I did , at Poole in England many years ago . Amazing Band !
I saw them on the Brain Drain tour, and again on Acid Eaters, both in Birmingham. The Brain Drain show was particularly awesome because it was at Sloss Furnace, with all the tin walls and pipes winding through the place. After the show me and my buddy bumped into the Ramones in a convenience store. I still have the autographed poster.
I only got to see them twice in New Orleans
Once with Dee Dee and once with CJ.
I feel very fortunate

Joey Ramone was the Punk Rock God!
We need to remember they´re from all over the globe!
All I was thinking was before he spoke, "I hope Johnny, is a film buff, I hope Johnny was a film buff"
Interesting. Thanks for sharing; Jesus Christ Bless
Nice wig Marky! haha love you brother!
Marky Ramone was a brilliant drummer, one of the best in my opinion the ramones had 3 amazing drummers but Marky was probably the best.
I always thought Marky pounded those skins like a cave man. It is overused but Dee Dee...fine line between genius and madness. THE creative force behind the Ramones. I don't think he nearly gets the credit due and often dismissed because he was high a lot. Many many band, not mentioning any names Green Day, copied or learned to play to his base riffs.
Dee Dee was a true punk rock writer. Joey was the guy who had a better sense of melody, I think.
yhn1inc Dee Dee...art imitating life. His book describes a pretty bad childhood. Joey didn't seem to have it much better. His mom describes an incident where he came home from middle school with a shoe print on his chest. Taking a sour lemon and making it a living art.
So right. I was watching R N Roll High School and it looks like he had no idea what he was playing...but it worked.
*Bass* not base
Dee Dee is definitely underrated. Their cartoon-dumb image sold him and the band short, I'm afraid.
And this one is dedicated to DEE DEE (R.I.P.) from his old friends in NEW YORK JUNK! NEW YORK JUNK play Poison Heart by Joe Sztabnik & Dee Dee Ramone
He's like a likable, punk version of Gene Simmons
Riff Randell had a crush on Joey. :-)

DreamRelmEmulator What about Howard Stern? Haha
DreamRelmEmulator that one is johnny i´m sure xD
I met those guys after a show in 91. I always thought Joey was really tall, because he looked like it in the photos. He was my height exactly(6'3"). He just looked hyper-tall in the photos because the other guys were all shorter than him, plus Joey was extremely long-legged. I stood there and talked to him for several minutes, and even though we were the same height, his legs came up about level with my bellybutton.
which autobiography is he talking about here..? he wrote more than one. Would love to read this.. from the sound of it its gonna be a great insight!
Didn't Joey trade stocks? So he could be a banker.
"Are you banker?"
"NO I RAMONE!"
he's really got some Paul Stanley DNA going on here... just look at that jaw line
And the wig lol
The benefits of being a Rock Star.
