Tommy Ramone passed away yesterday at the age of 65 (or 62 depending who you read) from bile duct cancer according to
Brooklyn Vegan. His born name was Erdélyi Tamás and he was the drummer for The Ramones. Tommy was the last surviving member of the punk rock band that rocked a generation and now that he is gone, I Wanna Be Sedated. They were ahead of their time, even if the music industry didn’t get them like we did.
So today honor him and the band by listening to their music and watching Rock n Rock High School, one of the greatest teen movies ever made. It is things like this that will keep The Ramones alive for future generations to love and understand like we do.
