Marky was playing with Lisa Marie in encore Ramones song Here Today Gone Tomorrow (see previous page). It's also in her new album Now What (release date April 5, 2005). Here Today Gone Tomorrow was the last song, then I run to the backstage door where Marky Ramone was asked me to come after the show. I chatted with Marky and his wife Marion some minutes with my friends David Kelly and Josie Montserrat and John (whom I met at CBGB's gallery) and his friend Louis Corbo. Marky was talked few minutes to the audience before they rocked Here Today Gone Tomorrow, like he dedicated it to the Joey, Dee Dee and Johnny and he told that Johnny's wife Linda is also watching a show... Then Marky had to leave, and next person whom I met was Linda.
It was my first meeting with her. I introduced myself and I gave her my Rock In Peace: Dee Dee And Joey Ramone book. Linda was really friendly and she asked me to come to the restaurang with her and her friend Sandy Linter. They both said really nice comments of that my second book and asked more of my background. Linda and Sandy ordered some food and red wine, I decided to order glass of champagne because it was a great occasion. We were talking around 20 minutes and then their friend Spencer Richmond came and I changed a table that they can chat alone.
