I'm missing a lot of my tickets from that era. Used to put them in my back pocket and they were often mullered in the sweaty mosh pit!

Sorry about the intro . . .
In that era most of the gigs I went to didn't issue tickets. The Ramones was BIG so there were tickets. And it was two bloody quid!

I thought that was their 4th single but it was their first as Status Quo. Good shout. They went downhill after that, though

True, their best ever song! Then their songs became an introduction to rock music for 12 year oldsI thought that was their 4th single but it was their first as Status Quo. Good shout. They went downhill after that, though
‘Samey’ doesn’t cover it very well at all!

Wish I'd kept all my tickets from then. I saw the Ramones at Friars in Aylesbury either in May or Dec 77, supported by either Talking Heads or the Rezillos. Think it was the May one.In that era most of the gigs I went to didn't issue tickets. The Ramones was BIG so there were tickets. And it was two bloody quid!

A brilliant single…but their second.
This was their first - a superb way to start.

Pedant alert - their debut single was Solitary Confinement on Stiff (May 1978).
Saved me the trouble.
