Punk Legends Billy Idol & Steve Jones to Perform at 2017 Johnny Ramone Tribute [PREVIEW]
PREVIEW: JOHNNY RAMONE TRIBUTE @ HOLLYWOOD FOREVER CEMETERY JULY 30TH, 2017

By Derrick Lee on July 18, 2017 in Music



Hollywood, CA- The Spirit of Johnny Ramone will be revived later this month at Hollywood Forever Cemetery on July 30th, 2017. Music and memories will echo over and through the tombs of the celebrity cemetery as as punk legends Billy Idol and Steve Jones (of the Sex Pistols) are confirmed to play some amazing acoustic songs at this year’s Johnny Ramone Tribute.

The performance is the latest addition to the festivities, which will feature a screening of one of Johnny Ramone’s cult classic favorite films, Buffalo ’66, with an introduction from the wildly eccentric director, writer, and star Vincent Gallo. The tribute will also include a Ramones Exhibition in the mausoleum featuring items from Johnny and Tommy’s personal collections of leather jackets, guitars, awards and memorabilia which will surely be a go-to for anyone

Join celebrity guests Fred Armisen,, Shepard Fairey (who will also have some original art on exhibit), Mickey Rourke, Rosanna Arquette and more as they celebrate the life and music of Johnny Ramone (and also Johnny’s friend Chris Cornell who has been laid to rest right next to Johynn) in what will no doubt be a memorable experience.

The Johnny Ramone Tribute is a fundraising event for the Johnny and Linda Ramone Foundation, which provides funding for Dr. David Agus at the Center for Applied Medicine at the Keck School of Medicine at USC.

CLASSIC QUADROPHENIA US TOUR

LOS ANGELES, CA (June 6, 2017) The Who’s Pete Townshend is transporting Classic Quadrophenia to U.S. audiences this September for a series of four special performances featuring music legends Pete Townshend, Billy Idol, and acclaimed tenor Alfie Boe. Townshend conceptualized an experience unlike any other by blending The Who’s timeless album Quadrophenia with orchestral accompaniment. The London world premiere at Royal Albert Hall electrified audiences and will now be replicated in Lenox, MA, New York, NY and Los Angeles, CA only! The extraordinary musical journey kicks off September 2 in Lenox with the Boston Pops Orchestra and conductor Keith Lockhart. The New York and Los Angeles performances will be led by conductor Robert Ziegler, and the LA show on September 16 will support Teen Cancer America with a portion of proceeds going to the charity.

“I’m thrilled to be bringing Classic Quadrophenia stateside through the month of September,” Townshend said. “Melding the contrasting sounds of Quadrophenia with a symphony has been a really unique and powerful way to reach a wide audience of classical and pop music lovers alike. I couldn’t be more excited to see it continue in the U.S.”

The Who’s historic rock opera Quadrophenia was originally released as an extensive double album in 1973 and has stood the test of time as a conceptual work honoring the Mod movement. The album, later turned into a feature film and theatrical production, follows an angst-ridden young man in London who creates a new life for himself as a member of the Mods.
