MARKY RAMONE’S BLITZKRIEG FEAT. GREG HETSON
UK TOUR JULY 2019
Punk rock legend Marky Ramone will grace the UK for five nights to perform the best picks from Ramones’ discography, accompanied by Bad Religion/Circle Jerks guitarist Greg Hetson.
The former Ramones, Dust and Misfits drummer created his Blitzkrieg project in 2010. Gathering former Misfits vocalist Michale Graves and former Sheer Terror guitarist/bassist Mark Neuman, they recorded two tracks ‘When We Were Angels’ in 2010 and ‘If and When’ a year later. ‘When We Were Angels is a cover of Graves’ original track taken from his 2007 solo album Illusions, while ‘If and When’ was also written by the singer.Now with a rotating line-up which has previously included Andrew W.K., Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg covers the very best of the Ramones’ greatest hits and deep cuts along with surprise cover versions to make sure no tour is ever the same.
2019’s European line-up features a special appearance from guitarist Greg Hetson, who has contributed his raucous riffs to multiple renowned punk and hardcore bands such as Bad Religion, Redd Kross, and Punk Rock Karaoke over his forty years of performing.
Best known for the 15 years he spent drumming for the GRAMMY Award-winning legends Ramones, Marky Ramone didn’t stop after their split in 1996. With multiple side projects on the go including Marky Ramone and the Intruders, as well as working on material with the likes of Misfits and Teenage Head, he continued to live up to the name which is now featured in the Rock ’N’ Roll Hall of Fame.Continuing to tour the world with Blitzkrieg, Marky Ramone shows no signs of slowing down.
