Joey Ramone: Birthday Bash in NYC 05/19, new album "... Ya Know?" 05/22

Here Comes The Flood — Fri, 11 May 2012 10:41:00 GMT

This year's Birthday Bash for Joey Ramone will be held on May 19th at The Studio @ Webster Hall, NYC. A posthumous new CD, ...Ya Know? will be released on May 22. The tracks were cut at various times during the last decade and a half of his life. Joey's brother Mickey Leigh:

Over the past eight years I've been getting a barrage of emails and Facebook messages from Joey's fans, wanting to know when this album would be coming out. So having it finally become a reality gives me a feeling of triumph - not for me, but for my brother, and for his fans. And there's not the slightest doubt in my mind that people are gonna be blown away by it.

The $40 ticket price includes an advance copy of the CD signed by various musicians in attendance, and the official 2012 Birthday Bash t-shirt, not available elsewhere. As in past years, proceeds from the Bash go to benefit the Joey Ramone Foundation for Lymphoma Research.

A free download of one of the album's tracks, What Did I Do To Deserve You?, can be picked up from the official website. The album's opener, Rock 'N Roll Is The Answer, was released as a limited edition Record Store Day 7".

Here Comes The Flood — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 10:21:00 GMT

photo: Tom Roelofs

Torre Florim, main man of Dutch alternative rock band De Staat has created a website for his demos, covers, b-sides and other projects: Ghostnotes.

Ghostnotes is a collection of things based around the doings of Torre Florim (me). You can expect (De Staat) B-sides, new projects, collaborations, live songs, videos, really old shit, cover songs, podcasts, and more, and less, and more of the same.

I’ll be posting new stuff as much as I can. Hopefully every week.

It’s all ‘free’. You can listen and download the stuff as much as you like. Donating some money is very cool though.

(De Staat - Take a Walk, Get Some Air (All Right) by Ghostnotes)
