Joey & Johnny are dead. Only Marky & Tommy remain. :((
Dee Dee is no more as well.
They were all such young men. Terribly unfortunate. Their influences were broad and profound.
Well, poop. Didn't know anyone had started a thread on the topic, and I started on in Entertainment.
Marky wasn't a founding member; he joined (I think, don't quote me) in 1978.
yuppers, lets raise a glass of PBR (or wheatgrass :) ) in rememberance (without those bastards.. meant with affection..I never would have picked up a guitar)
