    Was never really a fan but its a shame that there are no members left, it's weird three of them died of cancer.
    RIP
    The trouble with tribbles is.......

    :lol:
    I miss Mark n Lard on the radio.
    Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.
    I don’t think I have the stomach for it.

    It would be nice if ANY bloody radio station didn't play Baby I Love You as a tribute to Tommy Ramone.

    (a) It's the most un-Ramones-like song ever and (b) Tommy didn't even play on it.

    Sloppy, lazy radio programming.

    Play Sheena Is A Punk Rocker.

    One of my favorite groups...

    I think that Tommy was the drummer with the real Ramone spirit.
