ENCOUNTERS WITH RAMONES MEMBERS, CREW & FAMILY

Between 1995 to present, I have met members of the band, crew and family. These encounters were in San Diego & Hollywood. All of them were very kind and took time to speak with me. They signed everything I had and did it with a smile. One thing I will always say is the the Ramones were a band for the fans and never for the fame! Thanks Guys!
