  • Bio

    Welcome to my MYSPACE Page. After years of looking at other people posting pages, I decided to post my own. So, here I am...A little about me.... CJ Ramone is the artistic name of Christopher Joseph Ward, born October 8th 1965, known as the famous and latest Bass Player of the most legendary American punk rock band The Ramones. CJ joined the band in 1989. Before becoming a Ramone himself, Ward was a fan of the Ramones, particularly of Dee Dee. His first show with The Ramones was on September 30, 1989, in Leicester, England. He played with the band until they retired on August 6, 1996. He made his recording debut in one of their most acclaimed records, "Mondo Bizarro" (1992). In spite of his youth at the time, on the record he sang one special song which was to become the band's true last instant timeless classic: "Strength to Endure". He sang a total of 10 studio songs with the Ramones proving to be an excellent singer and the ideal companion to Joey, who as time went by, let CJ sing more and more songs on stage. CJ also had a key role in the shows for the celebration of the 30th anniversary of Ramones in New York and Los Angeles in 2004, during which he played side by side with his former band-mate Marky as well as with members of such bands like Pearl Jam, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sex Pistols, Henry Rollins, The Mighty Boss Tones, Bad Religon and Rancid. He was also invited to perform during the farewell parties for two of the most legendary NY clubs: the mythical CBGB's and The Continental. More recently he has been recently invited by Pearl Jam to play "I Believe in Miracles" on June 24th and 25th, 2008, at Madison Square Garden in New York. CJ proved his will to rock hard again by launching Bad Chopper's first CD in 2008, an album written during critical and dark moments of his during his personal life, in which CJ still makes room for visions of a better future. Comparisons to Ramones are inevitable, but not unique. CJ reveals his deepest personal influences: from classic bands like The Ramones, Stooges, Sex Pistols, Dead Boys and The Damned to more modern bands like Zeke, Speedealer, Fu Manchu and Queens of The Stone Age. CJ had toured recently in South America, Japan, Europe, Mexico and the USA to critical success with Bad Chopper and as CJ Ramone, still proving Ramonesmania is well alive and kicking. He's also currently writing his own book talking about his years with the band, with a planned release date of fall 2010. .. ............Myspace Layouts.. - ..Myspace Editor.. - ..Hot Comments.. - ..Image Hosting....
