Happy Holidays! I take on more than I can handle. That results in a lot of unposted content. In the name of catching up, while also taking it easy during this final week of the year, here's some of that lost material.
It's not a party in SoHo unless the fire marshals turn up. And New York's Bravest were out in force Wednesday for the mob scene at Paper magazine's bash inside the Hilfiger Denim Store on Broadway.More pictures from the March show, below...Motley rockers mixed with hipsters for the launch of a denim collection designed and inspired by former Ramones drummer Marky Ramone, who performed with his new band Blitzkrieg. Marky was the very model of downtown dishevelment as he mingled with guests including Tommy, Andy and Ally Hilfiger, Sean Stewart, Russell Simmons and Mick Rock. [stylelist]
HOLLYWOOD, CA (December 29, 2009) - Ring in 2010 with Marky Ramone, special guest DJ of the night at the Hudson Hotel in NYC on West 58th St. Marky will be spinning tunes in the Ramones fashion from 11:00pm to 1:00 am EST.Marky Ramones Blitzkrieg's first new song with Michale Graves (ex-Misfits) "When We Were Angels" made its debut on Matt Pinfield and Leslie Fram's morning show in NYC last week.

D'you think Hilfiger said anything to Marky about how terrible his wig is?
Posted by Anonymous | December 31, 2009 1:09 PM
When is Marky opening a wig store?
Posted by Anonymous | December 31, 2009 1:19 PM
Probably the ugliest band in the biz...

i dont see how this could be considered good PR from any angle.

Wow, entire set is Ramones songs with one cover that Joey recorded. Marky exploiting his career much?

Do yourself a favor and go to the Marky's Myspace Page http://www.myspace.com/markyramone, its embarrassing and hilarious.
There you can get all your Markey gear including his PASTA SAUCE (seriously WTF) and his drumming instructional video.

The wig! Reminds me of the classic fight between him and Joey on Howard years ago. My buddy who worked with the Ramones for years did amazing impressions of them, and their fights.
But, he's a really good drummer. You can certainly tell it's him when you hear him and that's about the best compliment you can give a musician.

marky ramone is nuts.

Marky lived the life and wrote/performed the songs. He can do whatever he damn well pleases with them.
What a bunch of poser morons. Come on here commenting about nonsense like you have any say in the matter.
Kudos to Hilfiger for providing the venue.

I drank 3 quarts of Marky Ramone's pasta sauce straight. Then I rolled a Marky Ramone condom over my head and passed out. When I woke up all my hair was gone.
