Mickey Leigh wrote
to me already in early May 9th, how set include four songs from the
upcoming 2nd Joey Ramone solo album (album ...Ya
Know? got published one year later).
In May 19, 2011, in addition to Joey Ramone's 60th birthday
celebration was mine
33rd birthday celebration.
Of people you see in this page in photos, you can read interviews on my
books with
Tommy
Ramone, Richie Ramone, Andy Shernoff, Richie Stotts and Al Maddy.
I
just tell as a example of my interviews with Tommy Ramone. As you know,
Tommy Ramone is the surviving and founding member of the Ramones. Tommy
Ramone answered more than 30 of the questions I had for my second book,
Rock In
Peace: Dee Dee And Joey Ramone which was published in 2004.
For
my third book, Ramones:
Soundtrack Of Our Lives (2009) I had several interviews with Tommy
on many different occasions (also in Finland). In first interview in a
book Tommy and I focused more on the early days and stories relating to
the Ramones. Second interview is of Tommy's works as a producer and
engineer and in third interview Tommy and I discuss about his and
Claudia Tienan's duo band called Uncle Monk.
