The Ramones Street Naming Ceremony Pushed Back
.
(hennemusic) The Ramones are updating fans with news regarding the upcoming street naming ceremony event in New York this month. The group will be honored with a street named Ramones Way in their hometown of Queens, NY. Originally set for October 23, the band has announced a scheduling change to October 30 at 11:00 AM at the intersection of 67th Avenue and 110th Street in front of the main entrance of Forest Hills High School, which was attended by the band's original lineup of John Cummings (Johnny Ramone), Jeffrey Hyman (Joey Ramone), Douglas Colvin (Dee Dee Ramone) and Thomas Erdelyi (Tommy Ramone). Plans for Ramones Way were passed by the City Council in July. "Our community of Forest Hills has been the home of many famous artists," says councilwoman Karen Koslowitz. "Many legendary musicians also attended Forest Hills High School including Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, Burt Bacharach, as well as the members of the famous punk rock group the Ramones. The Ramones played well in the 1990s and received numerous accolades and awards including an induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award." here. hennemusic is an official news provider for antiMusic.com. advertisement |
