OTSwM #68 - Spike & CJ Ramone of Spike & The Gimme Gimmes

Two total different aspects of music, old school punk & covers, that might be more similar than you think. This was an intimidating interview, much like how Spike & The Gimme Gimme’s audience feels prior to them taking as the stage as they know they are going to be blessed with music that could actually cure them of illness. The roots of this band are unquestionable, make sure to tune in to learn about the maestro’s themselves & what to expect in the future. In this episode we split into two parts.. Part 1 highlights/ focuses on CJ’s time as a Ramone, his gateway to joining the band, how the Ramones legacy continues & more. As with part 2 we are joined by Spike, as the three of us dive into all things “Shit the Bed”, by Spike and the Gimme Gimmes, out October 23rd on Fat Wreck Chords.
