    they arent a very famous band but they have a decent following
    they too played quite a number of shows at CBGBs and played a few shows with Nirvana before Nirvana were famous.
    they are a Seattle band too

    wow, again I have become a little smarter. :D lol.

    you know, I've come to the conclusion that the Ramones has too many incredibly good songs.. how can one band be so.. productive? and good? :D

    that's true. I've many times thought one track to be the other and then the other as the first. lol. :D but the lyrics make them all unique. :D

    I don't think I've seen that album anywhere, so I don't know if I've heard any of those tracks..

    I'm from Argentina, and not a very aplicated Ramones' fan, although a like them. The thing is, Ramones have made an excelent frienship with argentinian audience (Vedder can assure that, for he was join them on a tour that led them down here almost 8 years ago).
    Last november, Eddie on his own showed himself very touched when argentinian PJ fans sang along I believe in miracles from top to bottom. It was pretty beautifull, as my english is wrong.

    so, I listened to the We're a happy Family album.
    it was good. :)

    I like the fact that some of the bands made a version of the song that was "they're own", not just a band playing a Ramones song. if you know what I mean. :)

    I especially like the RHCP, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Garbage versions.
    but the other tracks are really good too! :D
    though Ed sounds a bit weird in I Believe in Miracles..

    he's done a cover of that? didn't know.
    it does sound a bit.. I mean just the idea of it..

    seems like a lot of people do a lot of Ramones covers.. :)
    maybe cause the songs aren't really that difficult? :p

    that brings in mind my absolute favourite Dee Dee quote, "this is a very noisy hotel." lol. :D

    the John Frusciante cover is a hidden track on the album.
    the first pressing of the cd that come in a digipak has that track.

    yeh many have!
    i think its because Ramones have just influenced that many bands!
    be it Metal or even pop...the Ramones have influenced everyone.

    Dee Dee has too many funny quotes lol..

    mmmkay. :D checking it out then.

    for sure. it's really interesting to think that basically every musician knows the Ramones and likes the music. maybe not J'Lo but others. :D

    lol.
    the hotel quote isn't really funny when written down but it cracks me up every time I see it on Ramones Raw! :D:D

    the hotel scenes were pretty funny but at the same time it did sadden me alittle to see how drugs and alcohol caused Dee Dee to be in such a state.
    from the best looking in the band...by the time it was 88..Dee Dee looked 60..sad sight for me.

    no, I'm absolutely not kidding!!!

    he is (okay was) good looking, even hot, in his very own peculiar way: :)

    but I really honestly truly first thought he was a chick.
