turntables might wobble but they don't fall down

One further note on tonight's XDU experience -- the Real Audio stream is all fubar'ed so distance listeners most likely will be SOL.
Last night I watched Ramones Raw which is essentially a collection of home video shot by Marky Ramone while the band was on tour over the years. There's also some rare and odd TV appearances mixed in. Steampipe Alley and Uncle Floyd Show will perhaps be familiar to NYC-based hipsters of a certain age. So, narrative and cinematography are pretty much wholly lacking. This is not in any way to be confused with a documentary like Westway to the World. And it's in no way definitive, since it obviously only covers the years when Marky was in the band. Still, I enjoyed it. Lotsa great concert footage and general goofiness and worth seeing if you're a fan. And, hey, has anyone noticed that the Ramones, unfortunately, have now completed a reverse Spinal Tap and that only the drummers have survived? (okay, not 100% accurate, I know, since CJ -- the replacement bass player when DeeDee left -- is still alive).
