You should check out Marky Ramones new band Osaka Popstar, they are pretty cool! they also have Jerry Only from the Misfits, some dude from Black Flag and someone else. I bought their album as im a HUGE Ramones fan and it hasnt left my cd player since :)

Also, i saw Marky Ramone live with Anti Product the other day!! Hes one of my gods, i was front row in this tiny club, the singer held his mic down to me during I wanna be Sedated and let me sing a few lines! And at the end of the show i got one of Markys drumsticks!!!! Needless to say it was one of the best nights of my life!

Oh yeah... heres the link for Osaka http://www.osakapopstar.com/ they also have a myspace profile, on which you can hear some of the songs from the album!

Cheers

I love the Ramones!!! ^_^ I only know a couple of songs by the misfits.

Same here- Bigger of a Ramones fan just because I haven't heard lots of misfits songs. Anyone reccommend any?

If you can, go buy their box set. The later albums (American Psycho, Famous Monsters) are great, but you have to get the original stuff first. Seriously, DO IT. You won't be disappointed. rock1

its so cool to wear ramones t shirts these days. it kinda turns me off listening to ramones, knowing how much drop kick try hard posers there are wearing a "hey ho... lets go" t shirt

Yeah, it sucks that things like that happen, but you know what? I don't let it get to me. I've been listening to the Misfits and Ramones since before those kids were born. Some wannabe teenie-bopper wearing a Ramones shirt because they think it's "cool" isn't going to stop me from doing what I've been doing for years! rock1

The best thing about it, is when they pronounce their name as 'Ram Ones'. :rolleyes:

Ramones and Misfits...FUCK YEAH!

HUUUUUGE fan of both bands.

I gotta say though...early Misfits with Danzig for me,I'm not into the newer stuff.

First saw the Ramones in 1979 at a concert where they were TOTALLY put on the wrong bill.

I saw them at an all day festival in Toronto with Aerosmith,Ted Nugent,Johnny Winter,Nazareth and more.

The Ramones came out blazing and about 40,000 people booed and pelted them (about 2,000 of us were in the know,completely loving it).They lasted about 20 minutes before their manager made them get off stage for their own safety (people were whipping anything they could get their hands on).

Johnny...in true Johnny style...walked right back out centre stage and gave the crowd the finger,it was a classic moment!

I got to see them in 1980 headlining their own show and it was bloody amazing!

(I'm a fan for life)

My fav Misfits song is Bullet (my band used to do it)....great song!

I fully agree...if anyone is going to check out the Misfits,start with the early stuff...it's great.

and thanks for the heads up on these other bands...gotta check into them (especially if someone from Black Flag is in the band).

haha yeah ive read about that Ramones show! happened to them a few times, i believe. same thing happened to sabbath when they were called Earth haha they got booked into some gig that was full of people in suits and ball gowns. :rofl-lol:

And yeah dude, Osaka Popstar are awesome! markys drumming on their album is as amazing and powerful as ever and the album is very much in the spirit of the ramones, fast, fun and very short! 13 tracks, 27minutes! hehe.

:krider:

The lineup you described is what Jerry Only was calling the "Misfits" a couple years ago
