KALX radio on 10th year since Joey passed on

Was listening to KALX radio in Berkeley today and the afternoon DJ, Tiger Lilly played a half hour of songs by and about the Ramones in tribute to Joey Ramone who passed away 10 years ago today. It was a great tribute to Joey and it was good to see that college radio hasn't forgotten the Ramones and their influence on music long after their breakup and subsequent demises of Joey, Johnny and Dee Dee. Thanks Tiger Lilly that made my day. I liked the instrumental from LAMF too, I'll be tuning in to your show for more good stuff.

You can listen live at the link: KALX 90.7 FM
Tiger Lilly's show is described as "A manic, sleep-deprived stew of '70s punk, glam, rockabilly, '50s rocknroll, doowop, '60s girl groups, pub rock, garage, punkrocknroll, and whatever else provokes riots on your own personal dance floor."
Sounds good to me! Tune in and give her a listen, you may learn something new too.

Anyway, here are a few videos from Youtube to remember Joey and The Ramones in their heyday:
