Uh...what about them?
Wasn't C.J. like 25 years younger than the rest of them when he joined?

I always thought the Ramones were lame past '80.
Sign stands.

If the band is setting up and that band is named "CoCoRosie", you know it's gonna suck.

Well, of course all of their best songs were written before C.J. joined the band, but I wouldn't exactly say they
sucked after that. They still put on one hell of a live show. I saw the Ramones several times in the late '80s and early 90s, and never once did I leave the show thinking, "Wow, that band really sucked!"

Live paining on stage while band plays / "inspires artist"
Wacky band name
Tambourine on stage.
Combo amps in flight cases that are worth more than the amp itself.
Friends of band are the only ones close to the stage, and they're taking picture while the band sets up.
Shit, if you're right a lot of my bands sucked.

My band does that if we don't get a sound check

In a 100 people capacity venue, witnessing guitar techs/bass techs/drum techs checking 15 minutes before gig starts if everything is ok.
I actually witnessed this and oh my god the band was shite.
