Elisa Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Bonzo Goes To Bitburg. It's probably my favourite song ever. I know a story about their haircuts. I heard an interview with their manager years ago and he was talking about how he hated their haircut too and said that one night he was with the band, they pulled into a gas station, and all four Ramones and him went into the store to bought some stuffs. Then the Ramones went back to the van but the manager was still in the store and an old woman approached him and said something like "sir, it's so kind of you to take these people out of the mental institution and watch over them" - all because of the haircut.

Scott. Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Teenage Lobotomy for me. Force of nature that song. I fucking love it. I also love their cover of needles and pins. The original was one of my grandads fave songs and I love Joeys voice Quote

She'll still get money from album sales though and I'm sure she gets royalty checks and money from streams. I don't know how big this band is so I'm not sure how alluring a tour would be financially if you don't want to be a part of the band. Quote

To each their own, I guess. I'm pretty cynical when it comes to performing and music in general so I can't say I wouldn't do what she did, I guess. Quote
