Ramone is living proof that if you do enough stupid radio bits, you'll get on the radio. Originally from the Detroit area, Ramone joined 107.7 RKR in 2006 as The Rocker morning intern. He went on to host nights and mid-days, before accepting a job at Wiser Productions as a talent agent in 2015. But don't worry, he's still lingering around, and you can listen to him preach the gospel of rock n' roll every Saturday from 3 to 8 p.m. right here on The Rocker!

Where is My Blu-Ray Remote?

Metalheads, Rejoice! Black Label is Coming to Town
Our favorite redneck viking, Zakk Wylde, is bringing Black Label Society to the Orbit Room in Grand Rapids on April 11. There's one problem with this show; it's the same day as Primus at the Kalamazoo State Theater.
Now, I've never seen Primus before, and they're playing in my backyard, so I really want to see them, however, I'm an old school Zakk Wylde fan...
Ramone’s Rant: Pajama Pants
::Start Rant::
When did it become socially acceptable to wear pajama pants out of the house? Pajama pants are great. They're comfortable to wear while sleeping and nice to slip on on a Saturday/Sunday morning when you roll out of bed and you just want to watch cartoons and smoke a joint...

Neil Young’s Shirt Says What??
Am I reading this right? Does Neil Young's shirt say, "fart?"
It actually says, "Earth," but believe me, I did a double take when I saw a printed photo of this laying around the studio.
Stefani, Mike, and I hope it says "fart" because that would be funnier...

Who knows, maybe a drunk Ramone will make an appearance...
Free Geezer!
Earlier this week, Geezer Butler of Black Sabbath was arrested for being drunk, violent, and being a vandal. Sounds like a Sabbath song! After 65 years, Geezer is still one tough sonuva bitch!
Geezer was arrested after an altercation at the Corckscrew Saloon in Death Valley...
