And the prize for most comments on a thread about Dee Dee Ramone and the Ramones goes to Spectoremg!

I have am Aerodyne that is beautiful in every way apart from the fact that it crackles when I change volume. It drives me mad. This thread helps me to realise I have hope without going to an expensive Luthier.

Man, I hope you get on ok with that and everything works ok. Thats a horrible thing to happen to anyone never mind a musician!

My point is they were loved and still are. They are considered legends. You don't like them and persist on commenting on this thread about it. My mate got me into them and the double live album was played to death between us!

83,000 likes on Youchoob! Check the comments as well. This band were superb!

I typed the original swearword of ladies front bottom just to see what the filter would come up with. I love the sweary filter 🤣

I got about two minutes in before I switched off. What an annoying nasty pasty!

I count three comments since asking to be excused 😉

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramones Maybe read up about what they achieved before slagging them off. They have been hugely influential. Yes, its simple music but all Rock 'n' Roll tends to be. They were the fathers of punk and deserve their place in the Sun.

I would like to know more about controlling the PA with a tablet. What gear do you need for this?

I bought our PA and we went down the route of mic'ing up everything, drums, bass, guitars as well as vocals. We used to do this in every pub we played in. Then one time we got a gig quite a drive away, so we decided to not take the bass bins and just put vocals through the PA. What a difference. We were balanced and had a decent volume without being ear splittingly loud. Everything was clear and we could hear each other. I realised that we were over killing our sound in small gigs. A vocal PA is good enough for most venues. If you get bigger gigs then putting everything through the PA is justified. People like to hear a band but still be able to chat.

I have an Electrovoice PA. Active speakers. Incredible sound 2 x15 tops with 2 x bass bins

If the legend that is Lemmy likes The Ramones that's good enough for me!

I would love a Jack Cassidy!

Karen Matheson isn't from Shetland, she is from my home town Oban. more specifically a place called Taynuilt

You just had to make a comment with a name like Skidder didn't you? 😎

Music is getting more and more digitised. Those with the know how to do all this programming will be able to take advantage of it. You are going to wonder what is real music and what is computer generated. Then again, that has been going on for years. I'll just shut up.

I think he is a bit of a rock fan in general.

Not by the same management of Babymetal by any chance?

I love Volbeat. Everything and anything they do.

I actually have a lot of time for the Ramones. They were a great band for their time and influenced many people. Dee Dee is no Johnny Ramone on the vocals right enough. Some of the first songs I learned were Ramones songs. Nice easy pumping away on two strings. I slag them off purely to be hilarious and am in no way serious about downing The R.A.M.O.N.E.S. Ramones!

I absolutely LOVE this! The wee guy is class!

There, fixed it for ya. 👍
