Homage, reverence, and thanks. Twenty five years to the month since the one and only time I saw the Ramones in concert -- on a one night release from hospital, leg in a titanium external splint, half way through having 'Albert' rebuilt after the bike crash. "Road to Ruin" on headphones at high volume (especially, "I wanna be sedated") was the self-prescribed pain relief after deciding enough Pethedine is enough. Never was a night out sweeter. And today it was time to say 'thanks'.
