Ira Robbins, Mickey Leigh, Dave Frey to host Remembering Joey Ramone chat at 3pm today
CBGB will be hosting a chat session with Joey Ramone's brother, Mickey Leigh, Dave Frey and Ira Robbins. The participants will be sharing an hour of stories, anecdotes, and reflection on the eve of Joey Ramone's birthday, May 19th.
The event takes place here.
Tomorrow, Joey's birthday celebration will take place at the Fillmore in New York's Irving Plaza. The event, which would have been the late Ramones' frontman's 58th birthday, will preview new unreleased Joey Ramone solo recordings for guests. Rough mixes of the tracks, slated for a posthumous album release later this year, are being worked on by a number of producers, including long time Ramones collaborator Ed Stasium.
