Apparently, Johnny Ramone has died of cancer. I don't have a link or anything, but I'll look for one right now...

So sad

[Dead]

Damn not only did she deny it but so did he. Anyhow sucks hope he rests in peace.

 

[Matlock]

Okay yeah it's confirmed. He died this afternoon.

Maybe she wasn't lying so much as having a hard time accepting the truth. Cancer is some pretty tough stuff to deal with...

[BlackMage]

fuck cancer. seriously.

 

[dog$]

Have the Rolling Stones killed.

 

[Cool]

I think thats all of them now, no?

Isn't the drummer still alive? Marky?

 

[RedDwarf]

Tommy and Marky are still alive. Did they play on a toxic waste dump at some point or something? Two early cancer deaths in one band is weird.

The funeral is going to be here in Forest Hills/Rego Park, I think. I have a chance to go, because my close friend's father (who is also my neighbor) was part of the band before they became The Ramones.

 

[Richiban]

Marky was playing with the Misfits for a while, but I think he has his own group called the Speed-Kings now or something.

This sucks.

It's going to be the Ramones Discography tonight.

 

[btrboyev]

terrible news....this only leaves CJ (bass) marky, tommy, richie, who were all drummers.

I respected Johnny as a great guitarist. my favorite band is almost entirely gone.

 

[BobbyRobby]

Marky is the one that plays with the Misfits?

Another viewing of Rock 'n Roll High School (aka. the best teen film ever made) is in order.
