OTHER

There were some other people who were in the band for a short period of time, but never recorded with them, as everyone listed above has. These are those "extra Ramones":

• Ritchie Ramone - not to be confused with the Richie Ramone who played with the band from 1983-1987, this Ritchie Ramone was the original bass player (while Dee Dee played guitar), but reportedly only lasted through two rehersals before he was out of the band (this is when Dee Dee became the bass player).
• Clem Burke - he played drums for two shows after Richie left in 1987; Marky rejoined the band right after Clem's departure; had Clem stayed with the band, it's been said that he wanted to be called "Elvis Ramone". Clem was also the drummer for Blondie.
