Friday, January 29th, 2010

Happy Birthday to Tommy Ramone. Tommy Erderli was born in Budapest, Hungary in 1952. Tommy was the original Ramone’s drummer, and played with the band from 1974-1977. Tommy, along with the Ramones, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.

Today Tommy writes, produces and performs in Uncle Monk, a bluegrass duo. Here’s ’I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend,’ one of Tommy’s songs. You can hear more Ramones at CBGB Radio.
