Any Ramones fans here?

I think they're absolutely fucking brilliant. worship Their three-chord, Beach Boys/'50s rock 'n' roll on speed formula might sound samey at first, but eventually, you come to realize just how genius it is. Not to mention they're probably one of the most influential bands of all time.

I dig the Ramones - saw them live in 1988. Enjoy Rock n Roll High School very much. Do You Remember Rock n Roll Radio is among my all-time favorite songs.

Big fan here. All 5 of their albums from '76-'80 get a lot of play around my house. Even more in my car.

Love the Ramones...my buddy introduced them to me when I was in my early 20's.
I don't listen to them nearly enough.
As a matter of fact, I'm laying down some cash to get these favorite songs:

Ramones:

1. I Wanna Be Sedated
2. Blitzkrieg Bop
3. Rock 'N' Roll High School
4. Sheena Is A Punk Rocker
5. Bonzo Goes to Bitburg
6. Beat On The Brat
7. Teenage Lobotomy
8. The KKK Took My Baby Away
9. Do You Remember Rock and Roll Radio
10. I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend
11. We Want The Airwaves
12. Pinhead
13. Howling At The Moon (Sha-La-La)
14. I Just Want to Have Something To Do
15. I Wanna Live
16. We're A Happy Family
17. Needles and Pins
18. Somebody Put Something In My Drink
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Always liked them. They did some killer covers as well as excellent original songs. I recently heard a repeat episode of Howard Stern where they were announcing they were retiring (and it was true...they were promoting their last original album, "Adios Amigos"). It was kind of sad to hear they were kind of done with the Ramones, but it got me interested in them. They have so many sets out and I think it's time I invest in a new one. I'm thinking the "Chrylis Anthology" (as opposed to "Hey Ho Anthology").

Yes, I'm a big fan. Although their last decent album was Too Tough To Die. They were going through the motions after Dee Dee left. Check out their documentary, End of a Century, if you haven't. They were one of the most dysfunctional bands ever.
There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently

That documentary was really sad.
