Is Johnny Jewish?
I don't think so, but it seems Joey is. 85.226.122.205 23:43, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
--MarieW521 08:50, 14 November 2008 (UTC)== Tommy and Joey are, though ==
He seems to have the attributes, though, with his chin and all, however he is a conservative, which is demographically uncommon with the Jewish people, especially of New York. I know Joey and Tommy are Jewish, and that Dee Dee is a Christian (of what denomination, I am not sure). IP:205.188.116.198
His chin looks Jewish? WTF kind of eugenics is that? That's easily one of the most preposterous statements I've read. Adiosmofo (talk) 14:39, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

PS: Thank you for responding to my prevous inquiry, I really appreciate it!
No mates, Johnny is Irish. That's how he met Joey's girlfriend. --BlueGlowGuardian 20:25, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
Only Joe was Jewish; Tommy is a gentile of Hungarian extraction, while John was a notorious antisemite (and racist). Kamandi 21:30 13 August 2006
Tommy himself said that his family are Jewish Hungarian (form the book Heebie Jeebies), Marky is also Jewish (I only know this from the Pop-up video version of Merry Christmas I don't want to fight anymore) MarieW —Preceding unsigned comment added by MarieW521 (talk • contribs) 05:46, 1 November 2008 (UTC)--MarieW521 08:50, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
No way could Johnny Ramone be Jewish. There is NO way anyone but his kin could prove that. Plus no evidence.
[edit]The KKK Took My Baby Away

Is there a source on The KKK Took My Baby Away being written years before Joey's ex-girlfriend started dating John? There is a brief mention of evidence, but it doesn't reference any. Kikimm 09:13, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit]Too Tough to Die: A Tribute to Johnny Ramone

Starz Cinema presents the World Premiere of Too Tough To Die: A Tribute To Johnny Ramone on Saturday, September 15 at 10 p.m. (et/pt), the third anniversary of Johnny’s death. The fast strumming, three-chord guitar master and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer passed away just two-and-half days after this 30th Anniversary concert tribute to his band, the Ramones, the seminal punk band from Flushing, Queens.
The event was meticulously produced by career-spanning Ramones creative director Arturo Vega and hosted by musician/director Rob Zombie. Too Tough To Die includes performances by Tommy, Marky & CJ Ramone, as well as performances from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Dickies, X, Eddie Vedder, Henry Rollins, Pete Yorn and many others. In addition, there are heart-felt remembrances of Johnny by Lisa Marie Presley, Sonic Youth, Debbie Harry, Nicolas Cage, as well as many of the musicians.
Too Tough To Die: A Tribute To Johnny Ramone is directed by Mandy Stein and is A Plain Jane Production in association with Cactus Three. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.151.166.5 (talk) 20:49, August 22, 2007 (UTC)
[edit]Death

i don't know if this is true or not,but johnny ramones death seemed to be pretty low in the media.i remember hearing it on the radio and i thought there would be a lot of press coverage and all,but i didn't see anything else not even a newspaper article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nirvanarox55 (talk • contribs) 15:00, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
[edit]Photos

Two pictures of the same grave site, two? Isn't one enough...I mean, the pictures are almost identical. Also, now that I learned that Johnny was conservative and racist, I really don't like him much anymore. Conservative/racist is definitely not punk rock. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.172.103.86 (talk) 02:36, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit]Help- Johnny Ramone invented punk technique on his own, didn't get from Jimmy Page

The Jimmy Page article and discussion page appears to be claiming/implying that Ramone got his rapid stroke technique from Page, despite Ramone clearly stating he came up with it on his own and stopped listening to others to come up with his very own style. He also stated he didn't want to emulate the guy, and a vague documentary claim is used as a reference. If this could be fixed on that article/discussion or if someone could explain to them why its breaching Policies/making misleading false claims to further Page's status, that would be helpful. --Karrabona (talk) 01:01, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
[edit]"Cummings"?

This article refers to Johnny Ramone as "John Cummings" and Joey Ramone as "Jeffrey Hyman." Even though they never legally changes their names, it seems to me that they are best known as Johnny and Joey Ramone. Timothy Horrigan (talk) 13:05, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
Normally there's a brief mention of a musician's real name, and that they used a stage name throughout their career. After that, it is only a rare occasion that the person is referred to by his birth name, unless there's a special reason for it. I suggest replacing Cummings with "Ramone" anytime you find it in the text after he adapted his stage name. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 16:47, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
[edit]Chronology

This article does not flow chronologically. There shouldn't be a section about his abilities on the guitar after the section on his death! I notice that several people have recently been editing this article, so I will leave it to you; although I am So tempted to be bold and just move the sections myself now.. ! --Leahtwosaints (talk) 12:41, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
