Actually I'm sorry to hear of his death, but glad to see he found Jesus.

Round and Round and Dance, Dance, Dance bring back lots of high school memories.

RATT was some of the worst bullshit noise ever imposed on an unwitting public.

I saw the Ramones in 1980 at the Palladium in NYC. What a show. Non-stop, no breaks, hard core energy. Just 1-2-3-4 from one song to the next.

If I didn't have a huge headache from taking a punch in the side of the head (that's another story) I probably would have had more fun, but it was still great.

Sorry to see Dee Dee and Joey go. The Ramones are gone forever I guess.

Kurt Cobain and several other rock stars died from gun wounds. Imagine that. Patsy Cline was killed in a plane crash. Life goes on...

From your profile page............

My hobbies:

Music. I play bluegrass guitar and I also play in a Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute band.

...............................................

A "hobby"?.......are you sure you're aren't the end all authority on the subject?

I know The Ramones avoided politics mostly in the early years - their urpose was to have fun. The first time they did something blatently political was when Reagan went to Bitzberg - it ticked them off - apparently most of the Ramones were Reaganites (suprising, somewhat)- and they wrote a song about it...

I always enjoyed Ramones shows - high energy fun is right :0)

No, that would be Nena's '99 Luft Balloons'.

I remember when Hendrix died and it affected me more than any of the others at that time:

Pig Pen
Janis
Jim Morrison
Otis Redding
Mama Cass

But with all the warnings out there, they still geez it up don't they?

Geez this is a horrible time losing some good musitiams.
My niece has been studying sound engineering in a college in north Texas for 2 years now and asked for my opinion of the best music I've ever heard. Well for last Christmas I put togeather a 12 CD set for her (SORRY, No royalties paid. I already paid for the music and I'm using it for her education. We're both really into music) I had everything from Bethtoven to White Zombie. Ratt made two tracks. Way Cool, Jr. (The opening solo did such a great job of setting a really gritty tone to the whole song) and "Lack of Communication" because of great insight into the human experiance. Did he do Lack? Very powerful, in-your-face strings to carry out the entire feeling of the song.
