| | A Ramones show in 1997 was pretty much the same show as one in 1977, and it was this consistency that helped the band outlast most of its punk peers. | | | Tommy, the group's drummer and co-producer, gave up performing to produce records; he was replaced by Marky Ramone. | | | The Ramones were signed in 1975 by Sire Records, an independent American label that had a heavy roster of punk and new wave acts, including the Replacements and the Talking Heads. |
