The Ramones: A Hard Place to Start

I like to think that the one after I left didn't have the magic. That the magic was wearing out. Like I just, like, for some reason I didn't know who the needs were. And they'd been around. They shared a rehearsal space. It was such an insular community. But when you come from those backgrounds is we all know, and there's a lot of this in rock and roll, you've got that desire to be validated... If you don't find a stage, don't get off it. Well, I think I have some of that.
