I know what you mean - it's never going to be the same
now that CBGB's has closed and three of the four original
Ramones are dead.

Hey, but the New York Dolls are playing again. Well, two of them are.
Did the bass player ever get back together?

Arthur Kane played the one big reunion show they did in London (Morrisey's
Meltdown in '04) and two weeks or so later, he was diagnosed with leukemia and died
a couple of days later. Look for the movie "New York Doll," which was sort of
focused on him and that show. It's pretty good. If you see the movie, you'll know
why it was so cool for Kane to have played that show.
You know that Thunders and Nolan were in the Heartbreakers and have since died,
but I was a bit surprised to find out the Walter Lure, the other Heartbreakers
guitarist, is a stockbroker in New York now. Who'd have thunk it.
