This is very sad. I have been a HUGE fan since the early 80's. The Ramones are truly missed.

55 is way too young to die (considering I'm only sixteen years away from that [:(!].

The Ramones were an original.

I heard the sad news this morning.

Damn, doesn't anyone get to live to be 60 anymore?

Start taking care of your health now, it's not too late.

My sympathy to all Ramones fans.

Love,
Mary Anne

Didn't care for his politics; but a great musician. RIP Johnny, you will be missed.

I just came back from seeing "End of the Century", the documentary about the Ramones.
Great film! See it by all means. It's everything Ramones/CBGBs/NYC 1970s. Includes Television, Blondie, The Heartbreakers and much more.

Or at least check out the DV

This is really making me so damn sad.. I could just cry!!! Ramones is one of the greatest bands ever which introduced me to punk-new wave genre and I still got the band's poster in my old room (one of the biggest posters displayed)..

RAMONES, you will

Ditto what everyone's said...I'm pretty bummed about this. They're ALL freakin' gone?! Unbelieveable. It's a hell of a cliche but it really is the end of an era. [:(]
