A biography for Joey Ramonehasn’t been written yet.
“When a band like Blondie re-forms, you wish them the best.”
“When I was hitching, I'd be completely decked out. I used to wear this custom-made black jumpsuit, these, like, pink, knee-high platform boots, all kinds of rhinestones, lots of dangling belts and gloves.”
“Well, I think we're the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world.”
“The Eagles and the Captain and Tennille ruled the airwaves, and we were the answer to it.”
“It was the glitter days, and the New York Dolls and Kiss would come play at the Coventry, all those bands would come in from Manhattan.”
“There's nobody as good as the Ramones, never will be.”
“They asked me to sing - actually, it was Dee Dee, because he had seen me in Sniper and thought I wasn't like anybody else. Everybody else was doing an Iggy or a Mick Jagger.”
