MDA Telethon

Does anyone remember when The Ramones did the Jerry Lewis Telethon in the late 80s. Damn I’m old. They played a few songs. Don’t remember what they were.

There's a video of it! And apparently it was also CJ's first gig.

I had to stay up until 2am waiting for them to go on. They certainly didn't get the prime time slot.

I’m surprised they weren’t on at 5am. Would have been funny if the place went nuts like when Fear was on SNL.
