I've been listening to some of the alternate mixes from their 40th Anniversary album releases today, great stuff
While listening their Beat Club performance in 1978 came to mind. How the absolute fuck could you manage to sit at a table while the Ramones were playing right in front of you?!

How indeed? I'd have been leaping about like a loon

...the format of some of those European shows, were a throwback to Hippie days where people sat down... sometimes on the floor crosslegged while half the audience got stoned ...also if the audience were seated, i guess it meant the TV Cameras had more maneuverability. There were Euro TV shows back then, where audience members were placed across the lip of the stage with their backs to the band, which no doubt annoyed the groups performing intensely.

The first 4 studio albums, plus It's Alive have been released, I don't know if there's plans for any more releases.

Re: Beat Club -Yeah, me too, I guess we'd have both been thrown out on our ear

There used to be a pub venue like that in Sydney called the Rose, Shamrock and Thistle (aka The Three Weeds). I saw Gondwanaland Project there and the hippies were mightily pissed off that we wanted to stand and dance, blocking their view.
I don't think the Ramones ever played there

RAMONES - PLEASANT DREAMS (NEW YORK SESSIONS) 2023 When i found out this was being released for Record Store Day this year, i wasn't sure what it would sound like, and... as i already have the original album from 1981, was it really worth buying? especially as it's not exactly a 'bargain'. But when i was in Bristol for The Damned Q&A last week, there it was, sat in the racks and only two copies left, so i bought it. This album by Da Bruddas, tends to get over looked. Johnny Ramone didn't like it, too 'pop' ...i guess. I know he didn't get on well with Graham Gouldman from 10cc who produced it. It flopped at the time, the cover art was terrible. This new version has much better graphics and the sound is less polished than the original, with some extra tracks, but some bizarre omissions... "Come on Now" is not on this pressing. I'd say, worth buying if you are a Ramones fanatic, but save your pennies, if you are not! 🤓
