RAWONES
Once upon a time in the west, to be more specific in a small 'Kempen'-town called Gierle some brave men got cursed with some strange spirits in their houses, and you have to know it weren't no mouses! The fact of being cursed with the same occult beings brought them together in an obscure basement where they tried to drive them away. They even didn't wanna go down to the basement no more after a while, they tried to sniff some glue, beated on it with a baseball bat, threw some chinese rocks and gave them shock treatment but nothing could stop these spirits from takin' over the bodies of these poor boys. Some months later they realised their bodies were taken over by the spirits of rock gods 'the ramones'. They felt the urge in their fingers and throats to continue what they did best: play short and funny songs with a very basic structure, just to please the crowds all over the globe.
It became a constant hunger and there was no way they would be stopped. They only had one problem: Marky ain't dead, so his spirit isn't around yet, After several failed attempts to convince him they were his stagebrothers but in other bodies, the three started a quest for a victim to replace Marky as a backbeat.And so they found a nice young dude who comes all the way from Vorselaar to complete the puzzle.
The name 'the spirits of the ramones' was too big to fit the cover of 'Rolling stone' and some other mags they will appear in later on, so they replaced it by 'THE RAWÖNES'.
As "da bruddas" (In the Kempen people call one 'rawönes' when he or she fits a raw and brute lifestyle, people also call the weather 'rawönes' when it’s raining cats and dogs) And so the story (re-)begins and will continue -as said before- to give the crowds a night of kick-ass punkrawk 'n' roll they will remember for the rest of their lives...
For fans of black leather, kneehole pants and rock & roll
