I Want To Be Sedated
The Ramones keep dropping like flies. Johnny Ramone died yesterday afternoon after a battle with cancer. You may not know that Johnny was a big baseball fan. Here's an interview from Chin Music where they introduced Johnny to one of his biggest fans, Billy Beane.
If you have a chance, rent their movie, "Rock and Roll High School." It's just a bit of fun, but the Ramones are great and Clint Howard is inspired.
My thoughts go out to his family and friends. Johnny will be missed.

It's very sad to hear about Johnny. :(
But that conversation between Johnny and Billy is FABULOUS!
Re: The Ramones
I have a really good VHS copy of Rock n Roll High School, which truly presents the Ramones in all their live glory, not to mention P.J. Soles & company as their true #1 fans.
One of the arcane classics of 70s punk rock.
