Useless music trivia question......

[Brian37]

Bonzo goes to Bitburg- Ramones!

BINGO,

I actually met them because I had a friend who knew them personally. Met them back in the mid to late 80s at a D.C bar called "The Bayou". 

The funny part about that, was they raged on stage, awesome to watch. So I saw the show, my friend took me back stage. I was expecting to see booze and women, but nope. Soda, bottled water and fruit basket.

My friend was talking to the short mop top brother went like this.

Friend, "How you doing?"

Ramone, "Fine."

Friend, "How's your mother?"

Ramone, "She's fine....yadda this that yadda"

Friend, "Great, so get this, just a few weeks ago I went to a sports collector shop, and got to see a Micky Mantle rookie card".

And all I could think was, "How the hell is your stage act matching up with this?"

But the truth looking back is it is still a business and I am sure the Ramones were doing just that. It was still fun though.
