Joey Ramone estate auction
« on: February 08, 2013, 02:42:41 pm »
some interesting stuff.. including his record collection of 97 lps (these must be the leftovers?)

you have to buy the entire collection all in one which precludes me bidding..

i'd dig that new york dolls shirt but $200 is the starting bid.

the collection of lps is suprisingly unexceptional..makes one wonder if his brother is just clearing out some crap records he found in the basement or something?

Having a Social D shirt owned by Joey Ramone would be pretty freakin' cool. But the rolodex and some of his eyeglasses are what I'm intrigued by.

I'd bid if they weren't all XL's.

His record collection is overpriced and not very unique. Certainly not worth the minimum bid.  His passport would be super cool to have.  Leather jacket would be cool but as he was small in physique and super tall I doubt it would fit too many people.

An old friend of mine owns the jacket Dee Dee wore on stage for many years....given to him by Johnny.  A serious piece of schwag.

To me, Dee Dee is the MVP of Ramones. The wackiest and craziest, but also the coolest.  Plus, he was one hell of a songwriter. I saw them only once, after he left, but I still don't feel like I really saw the Ramones. Dee Dee is the man.

Dee Dee wasn't at the HFS Festival gig, right?

why would anybody want any of that stuff.  i worshipped the ramones, and still do.  but do i want something that belonged to somebody else just because they are "famous" . . . how creepy.

I think there are some cool things in that record collection. The Rationals and Pink Fairies are pretty awesome. There are some other neat psych things in there fore sure. Sure its not worth 500 bucks if it was some random guys collection but that is Joey's stuff! Someone could sell the albums they do not want piecemeal and maybe get all their money back.

200 dollar t-shirts. That's so fucking punk rock!
