Yeah, poor Dee Dee, he wasn't exactly a foodie. I guess Tommy was the only Ramone who had his shit together. Wasn't he a sound engineer?
There's an anecdote somewhere, one of the Ramones books, that tell a story of the Talking Heads and The Ramones in Switzerland. The 'Heads are really into soaking up the Euro-vibe, and order a salad Nicoise. But when it arrives, Johnny freaks out!
"What kinda salad is this?! This isn't the way a salad is supposed to look!" The story ended with Chris and Tina saying, "Let's face it, the Ramones were not enjoying Europe."
(Prolly woulda been happier at a White Castle, haha.)
Joey went sorta vegetarian for the last 10 or so years of his life, didn't he?
I'll bet they were peanut butter fans after hearing Iggy and the Stooges. Who wouldn't be?
And yeah, always Indian and Chinese food (wasn't the cover of Halfway To Sanity taken in the entrance to their fave Chinese joint?).
Cool quotes, guys!

“Tommy was the type of guy, he would buy some potatoes and hamburgers and cook himself a dinner. At 21 years old, that’s a pretty cool thing to do rather than eat some dope and potato chips.” --Dee Dee in the documentary End of the Century
I love that quote.
How bout foods mentioned in the songs? Chicken vindaloo for sure.

Sure, there are the no-brainers, pizza and Yoohoo, but what else did Da Bruddahs eat?
Can anyone help me out here?

The last ish of Alan Moore's LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN looks like it may be the last for awhile (no spoilers). As solid as all of his other work, it takes off from events of 1969.

The newest LOVE & ROCKETS collection is pretty good, w/ the highlight for me being a short story about Doyle's past. Hell, it's the Hernandez Bros., you're gonna buy this anyway, right?

Better Off Without 'Em, by Chuck Thompson
This is humor, folks, although it's thought-provoking humor. Thompson's view is that the worst traits in Amerika are embodied (and may even have started...
Without 'em we would be a cleaner, leaner, more benevolent nation, kinda like The United States of Canada. One of the better books from 2012.

Hi Dave,
I don't recall ever reading anything by that writer......I might be wrong though..:)

What kinda jukebox would you have there? C'mon ya gotta have a juke, okayokayokay, at least a turntable w/ decent speakers. Geeks have said that mp3s can sound good, in theory, but I've yet to hear it.
Here's one that looks sweet in the dark:
Remember the movie Creepshow, and the segment w/ the roaches? That bastard had a gorgeous jukebox. His selection wasn't too rockin' though.

Yeah, I knew a guy who built bars out of railroad ties (heavy to assemble, but long-lasting). I just finished looking for free bar plans, but most of 'em look like yer parents wet-bars.
Here's one from Popular Mechanics for a Kegerator bar
Remember to drink responsibly (ahem).

Rich Tommaso - of "HORROR OF COLLIER COUNTY" fame - has launched his newest work "DRY COUNTY" over at the online Comics publisher STUDY GROUP Comics.
Excerpt from DRY COUNTY - all work displayed is courtesy of RICH TOMMASO 2012
It's a urban tale in bright pink - broody, moody and expertly told. A novel about swimming thru the swampy nightlife of Miami, while not wanting any of it's tastes to flood your mouth.
As of late November, the publication has reached chapter 4. Good point to get onto it.

ALSO: Try his website, where you can read his other suspense work like KILLER IN MY SLEEP, or THE MYSTERIOUS CASE. Highly recommended!

Ooh. I stumbled across a cool site called Food Republic which has an interview column with musicians called "Good Food, Rocks." I found it due to their interview with John Darnielle of the Mountain Goats, but they've also interviewed members of Thee Oh Sees and the Obits.

Stuffed French Toast
Here's a light and tasty version of french toast, high-calorie but light as air!
This is sooo good, and I usually *hate* breakfast food: too heavy in the morning! But this past Thanksgiving I was treated to a version of this.
The cook did a few things differently from this recipe (so feel free to improvise). First of all he made this for a bunch of people so he baked it in a hotel pan. Second, he added a custard to it and omitted the powdered sugar at the end. Also, he used plain ol’ white bread.
It came out light and fluffy, easy on the stomach!
