The Ramones Canadian TV Interview 1987

[@quickskate2g]

i know that joey and johnny couldn't stand each other, but i still think that in many interviews you can see some kinda friendship, tolerance, respect or whatever it is. i mean they're laughing and smiling at each other when one says a funny or smart comment. warms my heart everytime i see johnny and joey standing next to each other and smile at each other!

It was like a family sort of......Like at the end of the dad push cove to shove johnny had joey back if necessary

[@philmstud2k]

It’s a lot like co-workers you don’t life. Being human sorta forces you to look for the best in people and have a laugh to make the drudgery of life more tolerable.

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

When Joey died Johnny locked himself in a room & just drank 4 a week.

[@sexobscura]

they're brothers

[@My_eyes_hurt]

@@TheMrPeteChannel That's telling. They must have had their issues, everyone does, especially when you're both friends and work together, but when you lose that person you lose a part of yourself. I bet johnny had regrets when joey died. 😞

[@aliendrone]

If you have seen a lot of ramones interviews, you can see that Joey and Johnny are really interacting in this interview ! crazy stuff !

[@sensacionsombria5125]

Johnny and Joey were cool between 83 and 87 I think. There is a few interviews where they speak and crack jokes together. REALLY rare stuff

[@Dioshades68]

Algo que no tendria que pasar ya que ellos no se hablan

[@pichoharispe]

Wow, Joey and Johnny having a good day.

[@shizuokaBLUES]

Being in Canada will do that to a person

[@philmstud2k]

Richie is so underrated. Nobody even talks about him anymore like they do with Marky or CJ. He is my second favorite Ramones drummer to Tommy.

[@TheOfficerMahoney]

To me the best Ramones drummer, playing wise. Can't of course argue on the fact that Tommy infact was maybe the most important member, the band would not have existed without him and he wrote Blitkrieg Bop (with DD)

[@MetalMayhem1978]

Yep. He played on 3 albums. He definitely should get more recognition

[@JuanG150]

Saw him 2 times with his new band. He kicks ass and has his ramone spirit intact

[@theunsheep]

Cartoon cuteness! Lovely to see Jeffrey and John chuckling together.

[@LetsGoMetsGo33]

yeah, john was in a good mood here and was respecting joey taking the lead in answering questions. in the early days of the band, he didn't like joey to talk, and that was before their falling out. maybe in this moment they had a bit of a under reported grace period in their feud? r.i.p. johnny, joey, dee dee.

[@poqjaq]

Cheetah Thunders. Rip to Tommy too.

[@dracoschism6839]

I doubt you’ll read this but I’ll put it here anyways. Johnny and joeys beef has been confirmed false. They weren’t besties, but they definitely didn’t hate eachother. This proves that, when things were smooth they were fine. The “beef” would appear when there would be health issues, mental things, and money decisions. It was business casual.

[@LetsGoMetsGo33]

@@dracoschism6839 I would like to believe that. However, did you see the clips from the "end of the Century" documentary where Johnny says he does not know why he was sad after Joey died? he concluded that he was sad because it meant the Ramones were gone, not that the human being he knew all those years was gone. And he also said he did not visit Joey when he was sick in the hospital, even though he was encouraged by something to do so, basically because they don't like each other? It sucks, but it is what it is. Rest in peace to both of them, and Dee Dee, Tommy, Arturo, Hilly, and Setmour and Linda Stein.

[@1967PONTIACGTO]

"people are unsettled"... I love that.

[@eileen1820]

[@Thompsdan]

Richie: “Would this be a good time to bring up the subject of T-shirt money, I wonder?”

[@johndoee4742]

ja, Rich seems so pissed and fed up with the bands, and missing t-shirt money.

[@sidlivesproductions2263]

Agreed. In the documentary, Richie, even though he was the only Ramone to ever wear a suit, was still focused on not getting the money from t-shirts.

[@RockandrollNegro]

Joey wore a suit in the video for 9 to 5 World. Not that it matters lol

[@1967PONTIACGTO]

@@RockandrollNegro he tears it off though

[@orlfane1622]

Seeing that kid getting crushed against the stage brings back memories . I saw the Ramon's 12 times at least half of those times I was up against the stage getting crushed for an hour

[@robertmcmanus9185]

Hahah. I was 24 years old so not quite a kid. Totally passed out at one point, but I liked The Ramones since 1976 and didn't want to leave. By 1979 they were my favourite band and it was amazing to finally see them. Too bad I'm so short and the stage was so high!

[@slientrageskaters1]

3:26 to 3:33 joey and johnny were talking to eachother awsome!!

[@pingsdk]

really like johnnys hair cut here ..hell i miss the ramones!

[@KingLouieOfficial]

damn, joey knows how to wear that shirt

[@willovacc_1847]

I wish it was more open 😉 if you know what I mean :D

[@mustangmosrite]

Este es uno de los pocos videos en donde Joey y Johnny se hablan!

[@jamesmichaelfrank]

she meant old because the remones came out in the 1970s and by 1987 when this was filmed music styles changed alot. the ramones were always like visiting a time capsule...no matter what year it was or where you saw them they looked and sounded just the way they did when they first came out. everything else changed around them but they kept the look and sound completely uniform. it was funny and comical at the time but also extremely satisfying that you could count on them for being consistent.

[@robertmcmanus9185]

Hahaha. That's me. I'm short and the stage was right at my chest level. I'd waited forever to see these guys and wouldn't give up my stage position. Pretty stupid. I ended up passing out from lack of oxygen. Love to know who the people were who pushed me up on the stage. They saved me. Cheers to punk rock kindness!

​@@robertmcmanus9185 omg you lucky

[@robertmcmanus9185]

@@eivindgjengstjohansen9625 Crushed, but lucky for sure. Dee Dee wasn't with The Ramones much longer. And the fact that Dee Dee helped stop me from being pulled out by the roadies? Very lucky. The best bit of luck is that the fellows beside me realized I was in distress and helped me, although I don't remember that part. I'm grateful for that!

[@sensacionsombria5125]

Melts my heart to see Joey and Johnny talking and having fun together. Seems so surreal!

[@ChrisM1234]

Totally agree. Don't know why the interviewer kept saying they're old and legends in 87.' Its not the way they behaved, looked or sounded. The guys didn't even react to the stupid questions at all. They just laughed them off.

Hahaha. That's me. I was being pushed against the stage and couldn't breath, but I was too stubborn to give up my spot. And I was loving the show (just not the pain!). I guess I passed out before Pinhead and my neighbours must have pushed me up on the stage right in front of Dee Dee so I woke up with my entire torso on the stage and the roadies were going to pull me out. I shouted, NO I waited my whole life for this and Dee Dee said, "He ain't bugging me. Leave him alone." Still have the Ramones embossed pick Dee Dee handed me at the end of the show. Thanks to my unknown friends for saving my backside.
