Summary:
"The story of one of the most revered bands from the early days of punk rock in New York, told by drummer Marky Ramone. Marky Ramone's "blitzkrieg" style of drumming drove the sound the Ramones pioneered. Before he joined the Ramones, Marc Bell was already known in the New York music scene. But when he replaced the Ramones' original drummer Tommy, he became Marky Ramone. All of the band members adopted the last name "Ramone" although none of them were related. Having outlived his bandmates (lead singer Joey Ramone (1951–2001), guitarist Johnny Ramone (1948–2004), bassist Dee Dee Ramone (1952–2002) and the Ramone's original drummer Tommy Ramone (1949–2014)) Marky is the only person left to share the secrets and stories of the Ramones' improbable rise from their obtuse beginnings. It wasn't all good times and hit songs, and Marky doesn't shy away from discussing his own struggles, including the addiction to alcohol that led him to be temporarily kicked out of the band. From the cult film Rock 'n' Roll High School through "I Wanna Be Sedated" through his own struggle with alcoholism, he sets the record straight, painting an unflinching picture of the dysfunction behind the band that changed a generation"--Provided by publisher.
