The Northwest Toronto Punk Summit is here because Me First and the Gimme Gimmes’ CJ Ramone, John Reis and Spike Slawson are in Damian’s basement! Listen in as the current and former members of: Ramones, Rocket From The Crypt, Swingin’ Utters and Urine Trouble sit down to talk about what is and isn’t punk. From CJ’s lost first appearance of the show, to the downside of being too punk for the Pittsburg Pirates, to San Diego’s 80’s skinhead problems, to trying to slow down the Ramones acceleration and so much more: THIS IS NOT TO BE MISSED!
