HEY HO LETS GO!!!!!!!

The Ramones were compete teetotalers back stage.
I had the fortune of, back in the 80s having a friend, at the time who was into the Washington DC music scene, but was a NY city transplant who personally knew the Ramones. So one night they did a gig at the Bayou, a DC rock club in the enclave of Georgetown DC.
So these guys kicked ass on stage, everyone was raging, and everyone was lit, but not the band. So the show like all ended. And Mike took me back stage. And what did I see? Fruit baskets, water bottles and soda. And what was Mike's conversation, but with one of the Ramone's brothers about his family, and grandmother and finding a Micky Mantle Rookie card.

Fuck you.
Every time you tell us the story of getting backstage at a Ramones concert and seeing fruit makes me so happy. This is (at least) the third time you've brought it up, and it makes me want to grow up to be just like you.

I used to be in a barbershop quartet in Skokie, Illinois. The baritone was this guy named Kip Diskin, big fat guy, I mean, like, orca fat. He was so stressed in the morning..........

All those guys, for all those years, coming from one family was just astounding. Their mom must have been so proud.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

They probably owed Paul McCartney some cash.

No you don't. I wear shoelace'less shoes and still trip over things. I get rejection letters from chain mail.

That (and other obvious things) aside, I mean.
But golly gee - to go backstage at a Ramones concert, seeing no booze, no drugs, and then go on and on and on about it as if it matters. That is SO cool!
