This band through the help of GOD/JESUS THE CHRIST OF NAZARETH? 1ST AND FOREMOST HELPED KEEP ME ALIVE in 1977 after a fatal car accident where I died for 30 min and came back to life this is the truth in love ya'll. I know GOD loves the ramones
I'm proud to have an autographed photo I took of Tommy playing with the Ramones at CBGBs in 1977 framed and hanging on the wall in my living room. The Ramones are THE rock'n'roll band of that period.
the worst thing about being born in 1990 was not discovering the Ramones till after they broke up and not seeing Joey play live. You are my favorite musician and hope you are looking down to see how successful you are and that you will always have been in the greatest band to ever walk the face of the earth.
Hola les escribo desde Argentina ,no se si entenderan esto pero quiero contarles que aqui en mi pais the ramones tuvo el reconocimiento que se merecian ,aqui los amamos y se lo demostramos cada vez que vinieron a tocar un show,son lo mas grande , tengo 35 años y los llevare siempre en mi corazon.
@carlos19752201 ah dios t bendiga, aki en mexico son solo un producto de mercancia, ves a cualquier chavo con una playera de los ramones y dificilmente conocen otra cancion que no sea la de i wanna be sedated o la de blitzkrieg bop... yo los amo!
Joey and ALL members of the Ramones should have gotten this award years ago. I've been a fan since I was 16 now I'm 48 and still a punk, but a little more professional. I've been blessed to have been to Hollywood Forever Cemetary and had my picture taken at Johnny's memorial; the time's past and present I'll alwaycherish and remember.
I started listening to the ramones after listening to the BEATLES and soon realized that this were the BEST bands ever!! That Johnny was a fucking republican!! LONG LIVE JOEY IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER!! JOEY, DEEDEE AND JOHNNY: REST IN PUNK THE THREE OF YOU!
My speech appears to have been, somehow, immensely truncated, as were Tommy and Johnny's speeches at the original ceremony, as broadcast on tv. My name [and their subsequent manager] Gary Kurfurst's name were omitted from the telecast of the event. Most distressing; one wishes for some graciousness out there.
Somebody probably had to edit the video for youtube - you can't upload anything longer than ten minutes. The whole clip seems edited for time, so, I'm sure it wasn't intentional.
Page Six of the vile New York Post edits for space, and as the "hottest" --alas-- gossip column in this country, Page Six seems to have focussed on the point I was trying to make. So did the NY Observer web site. I suppose no two cutting room floors have the same content..

Are you serious? Dude they dont deserve to be inducted, Richie was only in the band for like 3 albums, and CJ was a horrible replacement for DeeDee, neither of the 2 members were all that important to the band.
Richie was the fastest drummer the Ramones ever had, lowering the average concert time by about 2 minutes, which is amazing when your talking about the Ramones. and CJ may not have been as good as Dee Dee, but he still was in the band for the last albums, right?
