The one and only time I saw the Ramones, in July 1981, was at perhaps the dingiest, dirtiest and tiniest club I ever ventured into, the aptly named Hole In The Wall in Rochelle Park, NJ. The place was normally a a biker bar but on Saturday nights in the 1980s, they featured punk and new wave music. The band set up right on the dance floor, since the bar had no stage, and the ceiling was so low that Joey Ramone almost hit his head on one of the spotlights. We were so close to the band that I’m sure they noticed when one of my buddies, having had 1 too many beers, attempted to throw up in the trash can, but missed and almost hit a speaker, Is it any wonder, then, that rule #5 in my book is titled "Rock Concerts Are Rarely Played At A Venue Meant For Music".
This soundboard recording captures The Ramones about 18 months before I saw them, in Indianapolis on December 6, 1979, 46 years ago today.
