clem seems ok-ish, its a tad to slow for me personally, in clem burkes (elvis) defence, i dont even think even tommy could kept of kept up wid the like of marky and especially richie!! all good drummers tho :)
Good to hear this. I think he could have worked out if John had given him a few more days (or maybe weeks) of rehearsal - the drumming is technically great, and a studio album with him would have been interesting. He seems to not have the stamina for the stuff that is at lunatic speed, but the Ramones were always better at 80% pace (1980ish) - it got bonkers by 1986. The real problem is he clearly doesn't know the material. And the 'rock endings' - yuck. But it could have been.
the ritchie he was talking about was ritchie stern. dee dee talks about him in end of the century. he was in the ramones when they first started but had like a breakdown in rehearsals or something like that
Fine. Joey was the first drummer. The Ramones started as a three peice band. Dee Dee was bass and lead singer but lost his voice so they had Joey start singing and they got there manager Tommy to play drums then he left in 1979 who was replaced by Marky then RITCHIE then Elvis then back to Markey. Sorry if I mispelled its not that big a deal if someone misspells. I am dyslexic
@CoudyRamone The first line up was Dee Dee on Guitar and Bass and vocals, Johnny on Guitar and Joey on drums. The band Johnny R was in before was Tangorine Puppets with Tommy Ramone.
At 8:058:06 you can hear Elvis began playing the wrong song and they had to start over with DeeDee yelling 1-2-3-4 a second time getting the right the second time.
it sounds like a gig from the late '70's. The songs clocked in round the same time as the studio versions. During this era, they were shaving a good 15-20 seconds off each song. In the Ritchie era California Sun was 1:30 on a slow night.

They never played this slow even in the early days. Poor Ramones.

Clem Burke is an excellent drummer, he was just not given time to rehearse with the Ramones.

@DJDansound
in first line up Dee Dee was guitar and vocals, Johnny bass
i think it was Johnny Thunders thought him to play or they learned together
first band Johnny R was in he was also a bassist (a mean one kicked some d-bag in the balls with head stock)
