Hello again Tabby girl ....Loving your posts. .and you my dear friend can mind meld me anytime, we certainly have a great deal in common, ,,for some reason the Ramones always played on my Birthday 12/30 in NYC at the Ritz, now known as Webster Hall ,What a Great club band ,seen so many Big name bands at a club in Brooklyn L'Amour ,before they were big ..Metallica too many to name. .yup led a charmed life Thank God
That is a good point. Johnny proved that it isn't virtuosity that makes you good, it is good songs. He wasn't the best guitar player in the world..but he was the best at what he did. He 'served the song' better than just about any guitar player I can think of. Also, to add on what you said... He showed young kids that you don't have to be intimidated by the guitar or any other musican instrument. Once you have it in your hands, magic can happen if the songs are there. He might not have been the best technical players, but he was definitely one of, if not the most important guitar players to ever live.
YEA BUT ALL THE KIDS TODAY DONT WANT TO WAKE UP IAM 60YR OLD AND PLAYED MY GUITAR AT TO OPEN MIKES PLAY IT LOUD AND ONLEY RAMONES AND ALL THE KIDS RAN OUT SIDED BUT LOOKED IN THE BIG WINDOW LIKE I WAS FROM SOME DIF TIME AND PLASE BUT THE OLDER ONES LOVED IT BUT DO NOT KNOW IF IT WILL EVER COME BACK RIP RAMONES RIP
My babysitter dragged me to my first Ramones show in 1979 at keene st college iI was 10. I had the privilege to meet Johnny back in early 90's in Northeast. He was sooo kind. I also met CJ who was my age and new. Monty Melnick was very cool too. I went back stage several times those years. not once was I ever mistreated or that kind of "groupie" thing.i was treated like I was a lil sister. very protected. I regret that in those 2 tours I never got to meet Joey. I know now having been a nurse for 15 yrs. I was a young mother. Children are infectious and Joey was already sick. I get that. My second backstage visit I showed up with a tattoo on my upper thigh (93). I only did it thinking long and hard. Its permanent. RAMONES or something only ramones fans would know. simple Greco-Roman tat...'no melnicks" and yes 20 yrs later at the lake someone often approaches me cuz of the tat and says "hey, ur a Ramones fan". the guy who took me backstage was always VINCENT MANCINI a really tall tough guy. he would call me and tell me dates and addresses n lodging, cuz a couple times johnny said "she drank HOW many?" then it was comped and next time I was checking coats or getting their take outs. Mancini and i had some fun as my small 5 ft frame and he would just carry me round like a ragdoll on his shoulders. and I hope he wasn't one listed in 9/11. he was going for his firefighting cert at the time. Johnny and Mancini got such a kick outa that tat and Melnick blushed like a teen boy. I learned so much those summers. I was in paralegal school. each member had a different political view, so I listened and learned. Johnny was devoutly conservative and we talked, as too was my father. Marky, a libertarian, and then Joey a democrat. I got REEMED with info and loved every minute of it. Those summers I hold dear to my heart. Johnny especially shaped my political views. Johnny was always proper. I sighed when dee dee died from an OD. I mourned when Joey passed from Luekemia. I was inconsolable when John Cummings passed from prostate cancer. I felt like I lost a good mentor. I hold dear to me those 2 summers. That I learned so much from guys 18 yrs my senior. that I was treated so kindly and respectfully especially by Johnny. i'll never forget it.
by all means, if you're gonna get a tat, get one you love. wear it proud. as Charlie Daniels said, "you can be loud here and be proud" if I ever get one, it'll be the 'stamp' emblem on the front of 'THEWHO LIVE AT LEEDS'.on my left forearm , at an angle like the album angle. when the deluxe edition came out which has the song 'tattoo', I really leaned towards getting it.
Listening to these other vocalist's doing Ramones songs, you realize what a musical instrument Joey's voice was and how well it projected. Ozzie is another good example.
They were right about Johnny hanging on for this show to happen before he slipped away. It is pretty crazy that he died 2 days after this show. Not even 48 hours after. Yet he was as tough as nails and was doing phone interviews right before show time. Dude was THE man.
As a kid in the 90’s I always randomly heard Blitzkrieg Bop on the radio but never knew who sang it. It wasn’t until 2002 I got my first Ramones cd (Ramones Mania) at a thrift store for $5 because I saw it had Blitzkrieg Bop on it. I listened to every song and became completely obsessed with the band. I bought every cd, learned every song on guitar and started dressing like them, mainly Johnny because he was my idol. After a few months of becoming a super fan I remember trying to save up money so I could see them live. I don’t remember how I found out but when I learned that Joey and Dee had already passed I was devastated, but I kept my head up in hopes of still meeting Johnny some day. When the news broke that he passed in 2004 it was like a punch to the heart, I cried so hard that day 😭
CJ played in my hometown in Sweden, after the show he stayed and met all the fans who came to the show. I met him and He is one nicest and coolest musicans I ever met :)
Johnny was always a person I've looked up to, I liked every last detail about him and he's the main reason I had picked up guitar and play the way I do, I wish I could've had the chance to shake his hand and tell him thank you for everything he has done. With that being said, thank you Johnny. And thank you Ramones.
Totally. On top of the musical side of Johnny Ramone, there are a lot of other things about him to respect. The dude totally stuck to his believes and did not budge. If you are a secure person and have convictions that you stand by, that is something to be respected. The dude did not cave for anything or anyone. ..It didn't hurt that he was one of the coolest dudes ever too. hehe.
@@michaelr.4878 There's a fine line between sticking to your beliefs and being stubborn and hard-headed. I'm good with Johnny overall, but I'm not gonna idolize someone who is too insecure to open up his mind to others' opinions, and insulting or hitting others who didn't agree with him like he did with Dee Dee--that's that's dictator shit. Fuck that
Richie was the drummer, songwriter and even sang songs for the LP's Too Tough To Die, Animal Boy and Halfway to Sanity. He wrote "Somebody Put Something In My Drink", for the band and other tunes. He also sang backup vocals and did live vocals. Richie started with the band during the Subterranean Jungle tour, when Marc/Marky was out of the band.
English music journalist Charles Shaar Murray once said that it was impossible not to fall in love with The Ramones if you fell in love with Rock`n`Roll for the right reasons.
Also, I don't get teary-eyed often, but I did seeing CJ and Eddie speak at Johnny's funeral. This band is one of the reasons I bought a guitar and I feel bad for anyone who doesn't "get" The Ramones. Fucking legends.
I saw the Ramones in front of 250 people in 1979 in Santa Cruz CA. I only knew one other guy who liked them cuz I saw him wearing a T shirt. I walked up to his door even though I didn't know him and asked him to go. I literally could not find anybody to go and had no idea they would one day be "legendary".
I love that the Chili Peppers didn't feel the need to needlessly complicate the Ramones songs that they picked. Just played with heart, love, and respect. Chad could've played some damned 8th notes on the high hat though. :-)
I agree. They did justice to the songs...and other than the drumming, they did their best to play the songs as they were intended to be played. Flea even used a pick! hehe.

I got a perfect score on Rock Band singing The Ramones 'I Wanna Be Sedated'. True story. I found my true talent in life finally, singing Ramones songs on Rock Band.
The Ramones are still the greatest fucking band in history. I started listening to them when I was in 7th grade. I miss all of them. God bless these fellas for bringing the sound of punk to the next generation of kids. Rest In Peace Joey, Johnny, Cj, Richie, Marky, Dee Dee and Tommy. Thank you for what you did for punk and heavy metal. \m/
15:32 Dee Dee did not write Beat on the Brat. That was Joey! It was the song title that made me buy their first album. Long story. But thank you to Dee Dee for other great songs that also got me through adolescence back in the 80's! He is truly the impersonation of punk. Wish he was still here!
'My Brain is Hanging Upside Down (Bonzo Goes to Bitburg)' is one of the Ramones best 'later' songs. I'd add 'Somebody Put Something in My Drink' and 'Pet Sematary' up there too.
EVERYBODY LOVES YOU WHEN YOU’RE DEAD - the stranglers ... nothing could describe The Ramones more than that title/saying ... a 100% fact , if still with us , taken a break a few years and re-emerged in the 2000’s , the Ramones would’ve had an impact explosion they’d not had in the past , they deserved ... so sad , criminal
I love the Ramones and want to thank all the bands that played tribute (love you too). I especially love Joan Jett. But this is about John. I know a lot of artsy music types and I fancy myself of that ilk. I am grateful to John for organizing this shit into something great! We need that energy.
I remember seeing in one documentary that Johnny hated him, and he was never accepted by Johnny. They mention in the beginning that Johnny orchestrated this whole tribute (BIG surprise there). That could be the reason. Maybe Johnny just wanted to flip off Richie once more, a fucked up thing to do. Too bad, Richie did great in Too Tough to Die and Animal Boy
Semua manusia pasti akan mati, begitu juga Jhonny Ramone,,tapi musik dan karya-karya nya tidak akan pernah mati,,salam dari saya from Indonesian,,saya sangat suka dgn lagu" Ramones..keep the rock & roll..hey ho let's go..✊🙏
1:09:44 I always thought so too, Johnny. The Ramones, Sex Pistols, and The Clash will ALWAYS be THE big three in my book. And I can say that I saw all 3 play live and they changed my life! But The Ramones remain my all time favorite.
@@Stephen-lt1tp Iggy was the man 🤘👍 before US punk got it's title for sure it's a fact. 🤘🤘🤘🤘I mean you just have to watch Dead Boys 1977 CBGB gig it's got Stooges influence written all over it.
I was at this show. It was an amazing night of music and all of the musicians were just hanging out with the crowd. This was three days before Johnny died. Rob Zombie got him on the phone as no one new he was too sick to show up.
all this talent and they couldnt even simulate the energy the ramones put out and im seeing all alternate picking nobody can touch johnny's down picking !
Flea played several wrong notes in She's the one. For a worldwide known bassist like him.. That's pretty fucked up. Ramones' songs are the easiest to learn.
It looks like they have redone the vocal in a studio, probably the whole set was tweaked in a studio for the cd / LP of this show, watch Antony's lips on the vocals it's not quite in sink.
I really wish there could be a documental based of Joey Ramone's life and career. There is just one that only lasts 13 minutes. But there is not a whole movie or a documental about him. Anyway I love Johnny Ramone too. This is really a doc based on Ramones'life than Johnny. It's cool!! and Linda is taking care of his legacy and I am glad about that actually.
In allot of interviews of people talking about The Ramones I hear them say they were funny to watch. Some even say they were like a joke band. From the first time I saw them I was blown clear away and thought they were the greatest band ever. I never ever get the joke about this band.
I think it was because they were so serious as performers but their lyrics were so extreme that it was incredibly funny. Loudmouth, beat on the brat, I don't wanna x, etc. They cathartically say what we all want to say but never do so that becomes funny. I mean, here comes a band that says it all unabashedly and seriously. The juxtaposition is quite funny.
And I think in the beginning they were a bit awkward with the starts and stops on the songs, arguments on what to play next, and Joey falling over his own feet... I wish I saw it! Sounds hilarious (unintentionally).
Martini Chip Yeah, if you see the very very first videos of them they honestly seem pretty ridiculous. (I'm pretty sure there's one of them doing "Loudmouth" that seems pretty weak.) They improved A LOT in a very short time, though. They definitely became one of the fiercest live bands you'd ever see. I saw them a bunch of times while Dee Dee was still in the band and they were AWESOME.
Yes like many americans he was politically illiterate but that's not a reason to mock the guy, he did a few good songs....he was also a scumbag from a humanist perspective, you forgot to mention that lol
"my ass. Democrats are OK with late-term abortions and war whenever “their guy” is in office. FFS, the DNC is trying to put forth an Alzheimer’s patient for President" Hey pssst. I'm no us citizen ok ? It's gonna blow your mind but Usa is just a "small" country and i'm talking about the world regarding ethic/moral and politics in general. I know that true leftism (not liberalism you dumb dumb) will always take care of the modest and the less rich working people. That's a basic i know about, because of free health care, free education, justice for all (and not justice only for who pays millions for a good lawyer etc...). "Finally, before you accuse me of being a Trump fan (as if that could shut down an argument), realize I’m not." Oh please tell me who is your political role model it's gonna be rich :) "FFS, the DNC is trying to put forth an Alzheimer’s patient for President" Trump is more dangerous than that tho, please tell me what sucks regarding this scumbag, prove it to me you don't like him.
Dear God, I had an eargasm at 50:25. LOOK AT EVERYONE ON THAT FUCKING STAGE! The bit about Johnny and the groceries was hilarious too. Thank you for uploading this!
I'd give this tribute a bold two-thumbs up! I especially liked the creative talent of "The Red-Hot Chili Peppers" making the Ramones mantras ever better!
I saw the Ramones in Chicago in about 1979, fantastic show, not even that big of a crowd. Funny watching Johnny gritting his teeth and kicking stuff off the stage back into the audience.
yje mixed emotions i have watching this under my belt i saw 3 live shows in vancouver have 40 albums studio and bootleg and iys been 25 years since i last saw them...i first bought Mania just because it looked hilarious ...little did i know that would change my entire ideas about music....anyhow i miss these guys and i have often said now being 52 that the older i get the more i understand johnny ramone i wished there was a n afterlife to meet them
Hate me if you want, but I didn't know Johnny died when clicking on this, I was hoping it would be a documentary on his life, and what made him such a tough miserable asshole (which is why I love him) ..But anyways RIP Johnny
You had to see The Ramones live. The records don't come close to the raw power of a live Ramones gig. Thank fuck I made the effort to go see them a whole bunch of times back in the day.
por amar muito Ramones todas os tributos são bem-vindo, e por amar Joey Ramone sinto que nenhuma voz consegue harmonizar o restante da banda , como ele fazia ele era alma e corpo da banda❤ILOVE JOEY RAMONES ❤
It's so weird, but almost nobody can do a very good Ramones cover. The Ramones just sounded so unique, that even great bands just can't do a good cover IMHO. I mean, the RHCP covers in this video are DREADFUL. Even Metallica, who I LOVE, don't sound good playing Ramones' covers to me.
I once watched the video.,but they ALL want to be better with their voices and dance moves! GF-NYC..., YES YOU ARE RIGHT..., no one can match The Ramones.
It is a tribute they are not trying to exactly clone the sound of the Ramones, just to show their influence. For an example of the same principle in reverse listen to 'Acid Eaters', an album of the Ramones doing covers in tribute of bands that influenced them. Most of the Ramones covers sound weak compared to the originals as well. I think this principle is constant among 'tribute' and 'cover' albums. Looking at your profile pic I see you are a Misfits fan. Project 1950 from the Misfits is another example of an all tribute/cover album that sounds pretty weak.
My first Ramones show was in '83 when I was about 13. My MIND WAS BLOWN. Once Dee Dee handed me a pick from the stage. I still have it, in a frame with a nice B&W Ramones photo. Once Dee Dee left, I stopped going to see them. I couldn't stand them with that loser CJ on bass. Later I met Dee Dee in NYC and had a really nice chat with him. He was SO friendly to me. Coolest Rock Star ever. Well, Joey was too. :)
Apdm I agree. he played peace keeper and if it weren't for that and the youthful energy he brought to the band, they might have self destructed after dee dee left rather than carrying on for the last 7 years...and those last 7 years were very important because they were able to play and inspire the next generation of 90s kids. wish I was 8 or 9 years older (I'm 29) so that I could have seen them live. RIP boys.
Rock N Roll is a CONSTANTLY EVOLVING art form but some artists/bands/musicians are SEMINAL in that evolvement... Black Guitar Blues - Elvis Presley - The Beatles -The Ramones - *ALMOST EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED AFTER THE RAMONES!!!* The Ramones were GROUND BREAKING in what they did and PARTICULARLY in what they inspired in other/later rock artists. They were the TEMPLATE for most forms of Modern Rock Music... MILLION SELLING bands of today like U2, Nirvana, Green Day, The Strokes, The Killers, the list goes ON AND ON AND ON, would not EXIST were it not for The Ramones... (The Ramones advocated an ATTITUDE that ANYBODY with a belief, a sense of purpose and a certain ATTITUDE could DO IT!!! It's just going to take a lot of work!!!) The Ramones changed the future of Rock N Roll... xx SF
Thanks for the post.... I think I'll wear my ratty ass holey RAMONES shirt that I bought for my son when he was just a lad cheers johnyy joey dee dee marky
Johnny Ramone told every kid in the world to just get a guitar and play. The Ramones put RnR back where it belonged, into the hands of the kids.

What does "No Melnick's" mean? I'm aware that Monte Melnick was RAMONES' road manager, but I don't understand that quote or whatevs.
When you hear other good bands trying to play Ramones songs - that's when it's easier to appreciate how good they were.
Listening to these other vocalist's doing Ramones songs, you realize what a musical instrument Joey's voice was and how well it projected.
Ozzie is another good example.
Rollins cant really sing. Joey was a wayyy better vocalist.

Thanks for uploading this - awesome. Caught them in 1988, 1990, 1992, and 1995. Johnny was his own man and thank god for that....
'My Brain is Hanging Upside Down (Bonzo Goes to Bitburg)' is one of the Ramones best 'later' songs. I'd add 'Somebody Put Something in My Drink' and 'Pet Sematary' up there too.
EVERYBODY LOVES YOU WHEN YOU’RE DEAD - the stranglers ... nothing could describe The Ramones more than that title/saying ... a 100% fact , if still with us , taken a break a few years and re-emerged in the 2000’s , the Ramones would’ve had an impact explosion they’d not had in the past , they deserved ... so sad , criminal
:'| Goodbye Johnny you'll always be my favorite person and guitarist ever..
“I want the extra 30 years.” 😢
I love the Ramones and want to thank all the bands that played tribute (love you too).
I especially love Joan Jett. But this is about John. I know a lot of artsy music types and I fancy myself of that ilk. I am grateful to John for organizing this shit into something great! We need that energy.
JJ sounds just the same amazingly so
Daniel Rey's guitar tone sounds like God!
Why was Richie left out in the credits? At least Tommy gave him his due.
I remember seeing in one documentary that Johnny hated him, and he was never accepted by Johnny. They mention in the beginning that Johnny orchestrated this whole tribute (BIG surprise there). That could be the reason. Maybe Johnny just wanted to flip off Richie once more, a fucked up thing to do. Too bad, Richie did great in Too Tough to Die and Animal Boy
@@thorazine8402 dont forget halfway to sanity
Richie was fucking great
@@franciscofeest6691still is, he is not dead
Johnny’s hard focus kept the Ramones together
Judy is a punk, Commando, Blitzkrieg bop-Seve Jones on the guitar!!!
Semua manusia pasti akan mati, begitu juga Jhonny Ramone,,tapi musik dan karya-karya nya tidak akan pernah mati,,salam dari saya from Indonesian,,saya sangat suka dgn lagu" Ramones..keep the rock & roll..hey ho let's go..✊🙏
RAMONES POR SIEMPRE!!!!🇦🇷
1:09:44 I always thought so too, Johnny. The Ramones, Sex Pistols, and The Clash will ALWAYS be THE big three in my book. And I can say that I saw all 3 play live and they changed my life! But The Ramones remain my all time favorite.
Those are definitely the big 3, but The Stooges created it
New York Dolls could be credited too
@@omengaming9391 but they're pretty much around these days
How about blink 182?
@@Stephen-lt1tp Iggy was the man 🤘👍 before US punk got it's title for sure it's a fact. 🤘🤘🤘🤘I mean you just have to watch Dead Boys 1977 CBGB gig it's got Stooges influence written all over it.
Es un tesoro!!! Gracias por subirlo!!!!
I was at this show. It was an amazing night of music and all of the musicians were just hanging out with the crowd. This was three days before Johnny died. Rob Zombie got him on the phone as no one new he was too sick to show up.
all this talent and they couldnt even simulate the energy the ramones put out and im seeing all alternate picking nobody can touch johnny's down picking !
This is amazing. Thank you.
RHCP really took this serious, they sound better here than in their own shows
Lol they were horrible here
Flea played several wrong notes in She's the one. For a worldwide known bassist like him.. That's pretty fucked up. Ramones' songs are the easiest to learn.
It looks like they have redone the vocal in a studio, probably the whole set was tweaked in a studio for the cd / LP of this show, watch Antony's lips on the vocals it's not quite in sink.
@@harryhepworth312 Yeah, must be that, they never sound that good live
I really wish there could be a documental based of Joey Ramone's life and career. There is just one that only lasts 13 minutes. But there is not a whole movie or a documental about him. Anyway I love Johnny Ramone too. This is really a doc based on Ramones'life than Johnny. It's cool!! and Linda is taking care of his legacy and I am glad about that actually.
Like Punk? This is one of the coolest tribute concerts ever. EVER.
30:19 Johnny and Joe Strummer . RIP

!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's 17 years and counting! I will never forget Johnny!! So Fucking Cool!!!!
In allot of interviews of people talking about The Ramones I hear them say they were funny to watch. Some even say they were like a joke band. From the first time I saw them I was blown clear away and thought they were the greatest band ever. I never ever get the joke about this band.
I think it was because they were so serious as performers but their lyrics were so extreme that it was incredibly funny. Loudmouth, beat on the brat, I don't wanna x, etc. They cathartically say what we all want to say but never do so that becomes funny. I mean, here comes a band that says it all unabashedly and seriously. The juxtaposition is quite funny.
And I think in the beginning they were a bit awkward with the starts and stops on the songs, arguments on what to play next, and Joey falling over his own feet... I wish I saw it! Sounds hilarious (unintentionally).
Martini Chip Yeah, if you see the very very first videos of them they honestly seem pretty ridiculous. (I'm pretty sure there's one of them doing "Loudmouth" that seems pretty weak.) They improved A LOT in a very short time, though. They definitely became one of the fiercest live bands you'd ever see. I saw them a bunch of times while Dee Dee was still in the band and they were AWESOME.
I saw there first videos and I still heard Genius regardless of their antics and arguments. These dudes were before their time.
The genius was there, no doubt. Well, they remain my favorite band of all time. They changed my life. Those shows were mind-blowing.
The inventor of punk was a conservative. Love it.
Lou Reed was not a conservative
I’m a democrat but I love him. His guitar playing gave the Ramones their sound.
Yes like many americans he was politically illiterate but that's not a reason to mock the guy, he did a few good songs....he was also a scumbag from a humanist perspective, you forgot to mention that lol
"my ass. Democrats are OK with late-term abortions and war whenever “their guy” is in office. FFS, the DNC is trying to put forth an Alzheimer’s patient for President"
Hey pssst. I'm no us citizen ok ? It's gonna blow your mind but Usa is just a "small" country and i'm talking about the world regarding ethic/moral and politics in general. I know that true leftism (not liberalism you dumb dumb) will always take care of the modest and the less rich working people. That's a basic i know about, because of free health care, free education, justice for all (and not justice only for who pays millions for a good lawyer etc...).
"Finally, before you accuse me of being a Trump fan (as if that could shut down an argument), realize I’m not."
Oh please tell me who is your political role model it's gonna be rich :)
"FFS, the DNC is trying to put forth an Alzheimer’s patient for President"
Trump is more dangerous than that tho, please tell me what sucks regarding this scumbag, prove it to me you don't like him.
iggy pop is not conservative, mc5 were not conservatives, ,... poor conservatives big mouth and small brain
I saw him 42 times and I still can't believe they're gone it's like a meteor burning up in the atmosphere
Dear God, I had an eargasm at 50:25. LOOK AT EVERYONE ON THAT FUCKING STAGE! The bit about Johnny and the groceries was hilarious too.
Thank you for uploading this!
I'd give this tribute a bold two-thumbs up! I especially liked the creative talent of "The Red-Hot Chili Peppers" making the Ramones mantras ever better!
Joey Ramone told the Dickies to carry the flame, after they had gone, and there are doing that, Going to see the Dickies in July. i love both bands.
Thank you Ramones ... I love you .
Rest In Peace ramones.. wish they were still around
Saw them in Geneva by the end of the 80’s. Went alone. Couldn’t miss them. It was a small venue but it was all right 😊🎸🇨🇭🎼🌺
Oops Thurston (15:30)..."Beat on the brat" was not written by Dee Dee...It's a Joey song I think
I saw the Ramones in Chicago in about 1979, fantastic show, not even that big of a crowd. Funny watching Johnny gritting his teeth and kicking stuff off the stage back into the audience.
yje mixed emotions i have watching this under my belt i saw 3 live shows in vancouver have 40 albums studio and bootleg and iys been 25 years since i last saw them...i first bought Mania just because it looked hilarious ...little did i know that would change my entire ideas about music....anyhow i miss these guys and i have often said now being 52 that the older i get the more i understand johnny ramone i wished there was a n afterlife to meet them
How could say that was their best song? They only had a million other great songs!
It's nice too see so many young faces enjoying the RAMONES
Hate me if you want, but I didn't know Johnny died when clicking on this, I was hoping it would be a documentary on his life, and what made him such a tough miserable asshole (which is why I love him) ..But anyways RIP Johnny
You had to see The Ramones live. The records don't come close to the raw power of a live Ramones gig. Thank fuck I made the effort to go see them a whole bunch of times back in the day.
+TS50ER I love the records though.

, nothing wrong with the records. Nothing wrong at all, but it was their live sound with its pure, raw energy that made the Ramones matchless.
who ever upload this i love u!
Highest respect for the RHCP - all downstrokes by Flea & John!
CJ: I smoked my first joint listening to it😂😂
Escuchar a henry rollins cantar temas de los ramones es demasiado épico
por amar muito Ramones todas os tributos são bem-vindo, e por amar Joey Ramone sinto que nenhuma voz consegue harmonizar o restante da banda , como ele fazia ele era alma e corpo da banda❤ILOVE JOEY RAMONES ❤
RIP Johnny Ramone 😍😍😍😍😍😢😢😢😢😢😢
the ramones is original punk rock at all the pioneer in other punk underated bands
🎵🎶"Chewing out a rhythm on my Bubblegum"🎶🎵 ⛱🌞🎸
It's so weird, but almost nobody can do a very good Ramones cover. The Ramones just sounded so unique, that even great bands just can't do a good cover IMHO. I mean, the RHCP covers in this video are DREADFUL. Even Metallica, who I LOVE, don't sound good playing Ramones' covers to me.
Okay that's the true!...BUT... It was a tribute. And all the bands have done their best.or not ?? Greetz from the Netherlands. Ron.
RHCP was trying to sing like Buddy Holley., isn't it ?! (23.28 minutes)
I once watched the video.,but they ALL want to be better with their voices and dance moves! GF-NYC..., YES YOU ARE RIGHT..., no one can match The Ramones.
The only one that played with respect for Johnny was Steve. He played on the background.,without attraction attention.
It is a tribute they are not trying to exactly clone the sound of the Ramones, just to show their influence. For an example of the same principle in reverse listen to 'Acid Eaters', an album of the Ramones doing covers in tribute of bands that influenced them. Most of the Ramones covers sound weak compared to the originals as well. I think this principle is constant among 'tribute' and 'cover' albums. Looking at your profile pic I see you are a Misfits fan. Project 1950 from the Misfits is another example of an all tribute/cover album that sounds pretty weak.
The Ramones , The Best !
Rest in peace johnny
Awesome freakin show, wow, I would have given a lot to be there
These singers highlight how inimitable Joey was vocally. Nobody can get near him. 😉
My first Ramones show was in '83 when I was about 13. My MIND WAS BLOWN. Once Dee Dee handed me a pick from the stage. I still have it, in a frame with a nice B&W Ramones photo. Once Dee Dee left, I stopped going to see them. I couldn't stand them with that loser CJ on bass. Later I met Dee Dee in NYC and had a really nice chat with him. He was SO friendly to me. Coolest Rock Star ever. Well, Joey was too. :)
CJ saved the band, respect him, he's a real Ramone, a piece of legend
Apdm I agree. he played peace keeper and if it weren't for that and the youthful energy he brought to the band, they might have self destructed after dee dee left rather than carrying on for the last 7 years...and those last 7 years were very important because they were able to play and inspire the next generation of 90s kids. wish I was 8 or 9 years older (I'm 29) so that I could have seen them live. RIP boys.
Rock N Roll is a CONSTANTLY EVOLVING art form but some artists/bands/musicians are SEMINAL in that evolvement... Black Guitar Blues - Elvis Presley - The Beatles -The Ramones - *ALMOST EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED AFTER THE RAMONES!!!* The Ramones were GROUND BREAKING in what they did and PARTICULARLY in what they inspired in other/later rock artists. They were the TEMPLATE for most forms of Modern Rock Music... MILLION SELLING bands of today like U2, Nirvana, Green Day, The Strokes, The Killers, the list goes ON AND ON AND ON, would not EXIST were it not for The Ramones... (The Ramones advocated an ATTITUDE that ANYBODY with a belief, a sense of purpose and a certain ATTITUDE could DO IT!!! It's just going to take a lot of work!!!) The Ramones changed the future of Rock N Roll... xx SF
The best.. RHCP were fantastic
Thank you so much for poting this!
Thanks for this beautiful video
Thanks for the post.... I think I'll wear my ratty ass holey RAMONES shirt that I bought for my son when he was just a lad cheers johnyy joey dee dee marky
Where the fuck is Lemmy with his song, RAMONES???!!! That was could be the most EPIC moment EVER!!! lml
I like that after all of these years Leonard from The Dickies hasn't discovered ear plugs. :-)
joan jett - great stuff
Joan Jett rocks !!!!!
This was thoroughly enjoyable...restored my faith in the Chili Peppers after not diggin anything they've done for years.
+G Raw band were very good, he cant sing,at all
+Jim Devlin Sorry for your hearing loss
+boardskins sorry you appear to never have had any in the first place or you would know "flat" and "sharp" when you hear it. oh well;-) ejnjoy;-)
Just read Johnny's autobiography "COMMANDO" !!!
Guy with the yellow axe: Clearly you never saw the Ramones play live. None of them used a right hand technique that REM loved as much as you do.
