This one is about the Ramones’ first record and the author asks the question if Blitzkreig Bop is the greatest opening song ever. I don’t even want to think about that question, but I’ll say this - it’s one hell of an opener. Any song that starts with Hey Hey, Let’s Go is a winner in my book.</p> <p>since i’ll be reading this book this weekend, The Ramones are the artist of the weekend here on fredwilson.fm</p> </blockquote><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/niccai/~4/NOEZhczkXDQ" height="1" width="1"/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/niccai/~3/NOEZhczkXDQ/242035075http://blog.niccai.com/post/242035075Thu, 12 Nov 2009 17:16:52 -0800http://blog.niccai.com/post/242035075<a href="http://www.loopland.net/">LOOPLAND</a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/niccai/~4/a_BQ4DMIggQ" height="1" width="1"/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/niccai/~3/a_BQ4DMIggQ/241875559http://blog.niccai.com/post/241875559Thu, 12 Nov 2009 14:35:25 -0800http://blog.niccai.com/post/241875559<a href="http://code.google.com/p/cfpropertylist/">cfpropertylist -
