RAMONES

Strip rock and roll down to pure two-minute buzzsaw adrenaline: leather jackets, ripped jeans, zero guitar solos, and '1-2-3-4!' at CBGB.

Formed in Forest Hills, Queens in 1974 by Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee, and Tommy Ramone.Taking the stage at CBGB in August 1974 with 17-minute sets of relentless downstroke bar chords and dark bubblegum hooks, the Ramones ignited both the New York and London punk revolutions and toured non-stop for 2,263 shows over 22 years.

JOEY RAMONE
JOEY RAMONEIn Memoriam (1951–2001) • Ramones Founding Lead Vocalist & CBGB Punk Icon

The 6-foot-6 heart and soul of the Ramones. Standing center stage at CBGB in his black leather jacket, rose-tinted sunglasses, and Converse sneakers with a wide-stanced grip on his microphone stand, Joey's yearning melodic tenor turned three-chord buzzsaw punk into timeless rock and roll.
