I think I've heard Blitzkrieg Bop 6 times already today.

Kind of sad that it was just a couple days after the huge 30th anniversary party.

Yeah, I heard this morning.
Tragic how the younger generation is becoming desensitized to Ramone-deaths.

How many Ramones were there, anyway? I know for a while there was a lot of turnover. And I sadly still haven't heard any of Joey's solo stuff.

Well, this is the third Ramone death in the past two years, but they've had about a dozen members off and on over the years, so there are still plenty to go.

Which member will befall the Ramone curse next?  C.J.?  Doug?

Well, if only for that rap...
I think it's three down in total. Four possibly.
But at what point is it like all the Beatles dying and leaving Paul McCartnet as their sole spokesman?

Paul McCartnet is not the only Beatle left.  There's also Ringgo Star.

Well, yea, I know, but... What, Octopusses Garden?
I doubt Ringo Starr will ever actually die.

What about Peet Bess? And some people still count Bryan Epsteen and even Bill Lee Preston too....

Hasn't Byron Epstine been dead for almost 40 years?

Oh, too true. I was thinking more about the rest of the Beatles thing- along the lines of the 75 or so remaining Ramones.

I don't know why but I just now realized that the 3 Ramones that died were all originals. Tommy is the only one left.
