Lobotomy: Surviving the Ramones
Lobotomy is a lurid and unlikely temperance tract from the underbelly of rock n roll. Taking readers on a wild rollercoaster ride from his crazy childhood in Berlin and Munich to his lonely methadonesoaked stay at a cheap hotel in Earls Court and newfound peace on the straight and narrow, Dee Dee Ramone catapults readers into the raw world of sex, addiction, and twominute songs. It isnt pretty. With the velocity of a Ramones song, Lobotomy rockets from nights at CBGBs to the breakup of the Ramones happy family with an unrelenting backbeat of hate and squalor: his girlfriend ODs; drug buddy Johnny Thunders steals his ode to heroin, Chinese Rock; Sid Vicious shoots up using toilet water; and a pistolwielding Phil Spector holds the band hostage in Beverly Hills. Hey! Ho! Lets go!
