BuffaloBob Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=...amone&printer=1 33329[/snapback] I remember seeing them open for the Romantics in a small bar in Orlando back in the early 80's. Damn, those guys are cashing in way too young. I guess they had a really tough life and the mileage was hard on them.
Mark VI Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 Damn, that's 3 of them in 3 years...one of the greatest live bands in history..saw them several times...I remember an outside show at Buff. St. in the early 80's where the crowd was just crazy....beer bottles flying everywhere...people leaping off the stage and speakers...lots of girls dancing topless... God, I miss those days.. RIP Johnny.
njsue Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 I saw the Ramones a couple of times. Once down in Asbury Park, NJ. Other times the Punk Rock Clubs in NYC. Cbgb's & the Bottomline.
sfladave Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 RIP Johnny ....I feel like somebody put something in my drink! The members of one of my alltime favorite bands are losing the statistical odds battle. 3 members have met untimely deaths in the last 3 1/2 years, all in their 50s.

A freaking tragedy. Three Ramones now, and god, Joe Strummer's passing away ruined Christmas a couple years ago. These guys were ahead of their time and had to depart before it. RIP fellas.
Gavin in Va Beach Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 Only got to see them once in a club down in Orlando. Best concert I've ever been to...unreal energy. Almost got trampled to death in the mosh pit. Good times. RIP Johnny

RIP fellas. 33448[/snapback] I loved the Ramones, but nothing was worse than finding out Joe Strummer died. I remember sitting at work the day of my company's Christmas party and reading the message board on Strummernews.com and choking back tears all day. I had never realized that The Clash had such a profound impact on so many people and I had never felt that way about a celebrity death before.
