The problem with these (rock) band documentaries is that they all seem so much alike.

The problem with my links is that they're so me.

I never cry when celebrities or people I don't know die. I feel empathy for them and their family to be sure. But I never feel overly emotional.
That said...back when my radio station announced that Joey Ramone passed away lying in a hospital bed listening to U2's In a Little While - and then the DJ went straight into I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend? I lost it. It still makes me sad.
What can I say? It was weird. It was the Ramones.
RIP.
