The end of an era. I remember seeing them in a church hall in Queens Village when I was in High School, and it seemed as if Joey would fall right off the stage if he hadn't kept holding the mic stand.
You will be missed, Joey.

From MTVnews.com -

Joey Ramone, lead singer of legendary punk band the Ramones, passed away at 2:40 p.m. Sunday at the age of 49.

The towering front man, born Jeffrey Hyman, did not respond to treatment for lymphatic cancer, a disease that attacks the body's ability to fight infection.

Along with his cohorts Johnny, Tommy and Dee Dee — all of whom adopted Ramone as a surname — Joey was credited with helping found the modern punk movement. In mixing the griminess of the New York streets with a love of bubblegum pop, '60s girl groups and the Stooges, the Ramones inspired everyone from the Sex Pistols and the Clash to Green Day and Blink-182 to stake their turf on four dirty chords and an (often) inane hook.

Get the whole story at MTV News.

It sucks that a legend in punk is now gone forever. But, at least he lived longer than most.

I'm sure he will be sadly missed.



Rather die makin' money than live poor and legal
As I slang another ounce, I wish it was a kilo.
I need money in a major way.
Time to fuck my BEEEYATCH!! Hey!, and getten' paid
You other mothafuckas callin',
But me and my mothafuckin' thug niggas,
We straight ballin'!!

Holy shit, I haven't been this shocked since Kurt Cobain died.

I remember the Ramones at CBGB's, what energy came out from those live gigs. Even ath the Lolapolooza festival they still had the stuff right up until their last show.

RIP Joey, your music and influence will live on forever.

Oh my god. The combination of the Ron&Fez replay and Opie later commenting on it killed Joey Ramone.

Unlike Kurt, though, Joey Ramone has been sick with lymphatic cancer. So, while I'm still shocked, it's not completly out of the blue.

I turned on newsradio 88 for the weather and I got zapped with this instead. I remember seeing them at Coney Island High in the mid 90's and people were literally bouncing off the walls. This suxx:(:(:(
