Talk:Richie Ramone
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Contradiction
First paragraph: "Richie quit in 1987 after almost five years and 400 shows as a Ramone." ...and later: "Richie is featured on the albums Too Tough to Die, Animal Boy and Halfway to Sanity and played over 500 live shows with the band."
400 or 500? The truth must be known!!
What other songs that richie drummed on were loud punk rock song only ones i know of would be love kills, psycho therapy,animal boy,and somebody put something in my drink i meen something to beileive in,i'dont want to live this life anymore don't sound very punk.
How is richie such a super fast drummer he's no better than marky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try listening to some concerts with Richie, he was pretty fast!, he could stay playing 8th notes on the closed hi-hat throughout the entire shows.
Also, in the End of the Century documentary, various people comment on how he was faster than Marky.
I've seen The Ramones in concert many times,and believe me ,Richie is a far better drummer than Marky. The fact that he doesn't go around saying how hard it is to play Ramones music makes him a better drummer.Marky is always talking about what a difficult drum style he plays. Richie never needed to say a thing.He is also far better in recordings.His fills are more original and song writing and signing puts him way over the top.The Ramones should of never let him get away....................
For every idiot that said that richie was better than marky.. faster doesn't mean BETTER... by the way.. marky has a faster hi-hat beat than richie. but i wanna said that ramones don't need more crappy discusions.. they only deserve our completely
respect.
