Joey Ramones Brother: No Cake For Joey This Year
Joey Ramones Brother: No Cake For Joey This Year
NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) Joey Ramone would have turned 50 this Sunday (May 19), but his brother is saying there wont be any cake for Joey this year at his posthumous birthday bash. Mickey Leigh says at last years party just weeks after the Ramones singer died they handed out 3,000 Ring Ding snack cakes, one of Joeys favorites. However, things got a little sticky when guests started a massive food fight. Leigh says Joey would have loved being in the food fight, but it cost a lot of money to clean up, so there wont be any cake this year. There will be plenty of bands and guest speakers, though including Ronnie Spector of The Ronettes, one of the Lone Gunman from The X Files and Marky Ramone. Joey Ramones 2nd Annual Birthday Bash takes place at the Bowery Ballroom May 19.
