    CJ Ramone really was an excellent fit for the band, The Ramones. Besides his talent as a bass player and singer, both lead and backup , CJ had the emotional intelligence to strike the perfect balance between all the other band members.
    Listen to any interview, you'll find a very interesting and intelligent man. He knew the individual personalities of Johnny, Joey and Marky and he knew just how to find his own place in the band.
    CJ continues to represent the Ramones very well and I'm Glad CJ fostered a good relationship with Joey.
    Another impressive fact about CJ is he had the opportunity to take over as bass player for Metallica but he declined because his son was born with Autism that required more individualized attention.
    Had CJ accepted the job with Metallica he would have been a multimillionaire and set for life.
    In summary, there is much more substance and depth to CJ Ramone than most people are aware of.

    The real lesson here is you gotta imagine what you want, like CJ says he imagined looking out the window leaving for his tour, that’s what you gotta do if you want to do anything in life, first you gotta imagine it like it really happened to you, then one day it will happen, but nothing will happen if you don’t imagine it first.
