The Ramones - what is it?

One of the first and best punk bands of all time. Origionally consisting of 4 members named Joey(Vocals), Johnny(Guitarist), Ritchie(Bassist), and Tommy(Drummer). Ritchie got kicked out because he sucked at bass and couldn't pick up, and was replaced with Dee Dee.Tommy soon left the band to become the manager/producer and Marky took his place. Them Marky got kicked out for being to much of a drunk, then Richie took his place. Richie left the band and Marky Returned. Soon after, Dee Dee left the band to take a life in rap under the name Dee Dee King, and was replaced with C.J. All of the Ramones took the last name of Ramone. Johnny, Joey, and Dee Dee are all now dead.
NOTE:RITCHIE RAMONE AND RICHIE RAMONE ARE NOT THE SAME PEOPLE!!!

SONGS: Blitzkrieg Bop, I Want to be Sedated, We're a Happy Family, Warthog, Somebody Put Something in my Drink, Pinhead, Commando

SLOGANS: Hey, Ho, Let's Go, Gabba Gabba Hey!!!

What does "The Ramones" mean?

The band that started a revolution, and hey, there guitarist is probably the only rock guitarist who cannot ever be accused of ripping black music becuase he merged his influences to his own unique style of playing.

The Ramones are a great band.

The Ramones - definition

My favorite band of all time. People criticize them and say they aren't punk, but isn't punk about not adhering to an image anyway? The Ramones had songs that were fun to sing along to and were probably the first and last perfect US punk band. No one will ever be like them.

Gabba gabba hey!

The Ramones - slang

The first and best punk group ever. Formed in 1974, original members were Joey (vocals), Johnny (guitar), Dee Dee (bass; left in 1989 but was there for the best years), and Tommy (drums; left in 1979 and replaced by Marky, who was replaced by Richie but Marky returned soon after). They invented the genre we now know as punk. Their first album, Ramones, was a groundbreaking record. The band remained awesome for decades longer. Some of their best songs are Blitzkrieg Bop (Hey! Ho! Lets go!), I wanna be Sedated, Teenage Lobotomy, Pinhead, Judy is a Punk, Sheena is a Punk Rocker, We're a happy family, Glad to see you go, Rockaway Beach, and Commando. Personally, I believe their worst song was The Crusher because of the inadequate vocals that really don't sound like Joey. The band remained together until 1996. Joey died of lymphoma in '01, Dee Dee died of a drug overdose in June of '02, and Johnny died of prostate cancer in '04. They were inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame in April 2002. I get called obsessed and am criticized for liking the Ramones at my school, but only a fiendish mango could not help but like this awesome band. And although the main members are dead, the legacy of The Ramones will probably last for centuries to come.

Retarded Fool: I hate the Ramones!
Me and all the other cool people who are there: Gabba Gabba Hey!(throws potatoes at Retarded Fool)

The Ramones

the single band responsible for keeping rock and roll alive throughout the 70's and 80's. they are often thought of as a punk rock band, but not on the same "punk" standards we use in modern times. their songs involve (usually) upbeat tempos and catchy tunes. in short, The Ramones may have been the single best "punk"/rock band ever.

D-U-M-B, Everyone's accusing me!


Winter turns to summer
Sadness turns to fun
Keep your faith, baby
You broke the rules and won

The Ramones

Probably the best punk rock band EVER. The Ramones is considered the first punk rock band in the 70s.

The band first started on Queens, New York in the 1974. It consist of 4 band member named Joey Ramone (Vocalist), Johnny Ramone (Guitarist), DeeDee Ramone (Bassist) and Tommy Ramone (Drummer). All of the group's members adopted the last name "Ramone". Just a few years later, Joey Ramone passed away on April 15, 2001, at age 49, the victim of lymphoma. Little more than a year later, Dee Dee Ramone was found dead in his home in Los Angeles on June 5, 2002. RIP

Long live "The Ramones".

The Ramones

A punk rock band that hailed in the 1970's and early 80's. The band members were the following:

-Joey Ramones (R.I.P. 2001)
-Johnny Ramone (R.I.P. 2004)
-Dee Dee Ramones (R.I.P. 2002.....you stupid bastard)
-Tommy Ramone

following members were:

-Marky Ramone
-CJ Ramone
-Elvis Ramone (wtf)
-Richie Ramone

The first Ramones album (self-titled) is one of the most famous punk albums ever made. This album contained their biggest hit, Blitzkrieg Bop, and changed the punk sound forever.

Though the Ramones were a very wonderful band, they tried to reach commercialism in the middle of their career, starting around the albums "End of the Century" and "Subterranean Jungle". They were not very successful and many fans were lost. The Ramones, however, were always great in their own way, even if all of them were borderline psychotic and drank too much.

The Ramones split in 1996 and went and did their own thing. Joey Ramone made a new album entitled "Don't Worry About Me" which contains his own version of "What A Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong.

Joey died of lymphatic cancer in 2001, Dee Dee died of a heroin overdose like an idiot in 2002, and Johnny died in 2004 of prostate cancer.

Though the main three members are gone, their music will always live on and influence following generations.

I don't know about you guys, but the Ramones beat Blink 182's ass big-time. I DON'T WANNA GO DOWN TO THE BASEMENT!!! <:O
