Now Jiffy Pop,we're all gonna die,you big silly! Wish for something great for mankind,don't piss away your wishes man.
let me clearafy you idiot. i hope he dies sooner then he should. and that would be GREAT for mankind. johnny remone changed the way the world looked at the guitar, and inspiered millions of young people every were to take up the guitar. he showed that you dont have to be hendrix to rock. and THAT was great for mankind. like him or not, you cant deny the positive impact he had.
thats way fucked up to say that aboutsomeone who dies. it doesnt matter if you hate punk music. how would you feel if someone made a website about you when you die that said thank god the end complete is dead. your a fucked up asshole.
I'ma end this right about... now. Listen up you people... coming FROM a punk (dont make me list my credentials) so shut up and pay attention The RAMONES DID NOT START PUNK or even so much as help develop punk rock. They played surfer music that you could mosh to. They're so called impact on the punk scene is famed only by their few hits such as "What I like about you" "Blitzkreig Bop" and to an even lesser extent "Cretin Hop" I know you kids like to wear your shirts and raise your fist anytime you hear so much as Ra- but you have to face facts, they were not that influential. Did they have good songs, sure. But what did they do besides play a different form of the Beach Boys. Listen to the music not the hype people. You want influential? Try DK, Try the Clash, try the Sex Pistols. All three as well known as the Ramones and a million times more influence on the scene than those four kids with bad hair and leather jackets could ever achieve.
punk died before you were born teenboy. all you can do is research what it was and listen to bands that are living in the past. get off the high horse. next tell ol'hippie about hippies. you make as much sense, having done all that reading.
completey understandable for someone not to like a band, thats cool man, but you make yourself out to be quite a dickmunch when you say your happy hes dead! not just because he was a "ramone". if anyone were to die just saying that is terrible. i see on your sig your a fan of metal, as am i, (chuck and dimebag are probly jamming in spirit he he) but do you know the ramones influenced a shitload of metal bands!!!?? either way your intitled to your opinion. hate them all you want but save your dickmunch thoughts to yourself.
Well when you hang out in clubs talking to people who were my age in '82 and they tell you about that sort of thing you kinda tend to believe them, especially when you hear it over and over. The general concensus is "They were good but over-rated." As for the whole punk is dead thing, thats an argument I wont even get into anymore. Its a pointless battle of people who grew out of the scene vs people who still loved it. Blah blah blah, your to young to know what your talking about blah blah blah. Gimmie something new scenester =D
