Somebody Put Something in My Pledge



Thank you to Dangerous Minds for unearthing this video... The Ramones playing on the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon in September 1989.

  3. Mario Cantone's family owned one of Boston's greatest punk venues so he's not as shocked as he's pretending to be there.

  4. Way back in the day, a friend of mine called in and said he’d pledge a grand if Jerry dropped his pants live. They actually put him on hold so I think the request was actually forwarded on. Alas, they came back and said no.

    Still waiting for "The Day The Clown Cried " to come out.

  5. Cantone's - it must've been 1982 or 83 in high school in maine and depraved dave from manchester's Blinded Orphans tried to help us get a gig there but we were just kids and they couldn't let us play even if we had a great name The Nixons' Sweethearts.
