Ramones Museum

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Here are a few pictures that I took at the Ramones Museum in Berlin last year. Included is a banner advertising Ghost Dance as support band, and the running list for Super Bang 93 (headlined by The Sisters) :)

we went in 2006 when the museum was housed in a basement in kreuzberg, but it's moved now hasn't it?

Two years ago I was there too. A bit small though (if I remember correctly, it's only a single room) still it's worth visiting :)

Very easy to get to as it's right near Oranienburger Straße and the tube system is a doddle. I think we went there twice it was that easy to find!

IMO, the area round Oranienburgerstrasse is the best part of Berlin.

Was there earlier this year, it's quite small but absolutely packed with amazing stuff and more than well worth seeing. You also get your free badge and lifetime admittance. Don't forget to look out for the odd mention of the Sisters here and there. ;)

The t-shirt shop beside it seemed a shocking rip-off though.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

It was smaller than i imagined, it had more things that i imagined, i got my lifetime member badge and a lifetime discount to the t-shirt shop next to it ;D

Yes it is true Ramones played sometimes as support group to the Sisters :notworthy:

i also got a nice Ramones t-shirt.

Btw i also discovered a book from 19th century in egyptian sector in Museumsininsel, a very extend writing about ozymandias and the scripts in the statue :D
maybe that book was viewed by someone else before and who knows... the images in this book are fantastic ;D
