IMHO, it is time. I often turn down the volume of my rock pins and blast The Ramones for what I feel is a superior experience.

Thought that I would be the first to bring this back in this thread...

Looks great to me!
Quoted from Rum-Z:I wanna be sedated!
Right cause that’s the only ramones song

How about Spooky doing the theme? It seems like it could be in their wheelhouse for demand and possibly licensing cost?
I'm into it! All ramones songs are good pinball songs.
Super LE with leather cab
Marky doing callouts.
People whining about how "unpunk" $9,000 pinball machines are.
A bunch of dead Ramones wives reaping the spoils.
Pretty much every bar in NYC would get one.
Saw them play at a college kegger in Grinnell Iowa back in 78 or 79. I wasn't supoosed to get in (show was for the college students only) so I had to stand outside and keep asking girls to get me in as their little brother until someone finally said yes.
Crazy days

It's so unpunk! That's what makes it so punk.

I'm torn on this.
Best band ever. Brings back great memories.
But.....
Probably not enough of a wide appreciation, most folks just won't get it. And it seems sort of over-commercial for a band that I love partly because no one else in my High School had a clue. Although using Ramones music in an exercise bike commercial probably irreparably broke that barrier already. Man I hate hearing Ramones music in commercials.
Is 30 songs to much of a reach?

Levi is right again!
Ramones (still) Rule!
Ramones, to me, just IS pinball playing music. This, plus all the great hand drawn art over the years is a perfect storm for a great pin.
Machine needs to be fast and loud, just like it's namesake.
Gimme gimme gimme shock, er, pinball treatment!
One of my all time favorite quotes comes from Joey Ramone when a journalist asked why their songs were so short. He answered, "They're not short, we just play them faster."
Funny, but 100% true.
The ball is wild and so are the Ramones; two burrs on a mule's tail.
Just found this list in my desk drawer of my top ten favorite Ramones songs. This is from like ten years ago and I think it would still be the same today, so I'd love to see these incorporated into the game play.
#1 Pinhead
#2 Mama's Boy
#3 Born to die in Berlin
#4 Somebody put something in my drink.
#5 Havana affair
#6 Blitzkrieg bop
#7 Psycho therapy
#8 Beat on the brat
#9 Today you love, tomorrow the world.
#10 I don't wanna go down to the basement.
Thoughts?

We actually met CJ just before the concert, he was hanging out in the bar next door to the concert hall and we recognized him and got his autograph on our Acid Eaters CD jacket. Always come prepared to any concert with a marker.....LOL.

Quoted from GorillaBiscuits:Would be a great first Beatles retheme!
It does have the same number of letters in the title....

Great list.
I'd add:
Too tough to die
It's a long way back
I believe in miracles
All's quiet on the eastern front
Cretin hop
Yes! This would be a perfect retheme! Love the way The Beatles pin plays and may end up getting one eventually, but The Ramones handling the tunes would put it right over the top.

So make one!!, You already have a great designer on staff, you certainly have access to parts, you know a few guys who can code it, you have mechanical and electrical guys at your disposal, and you already built one machine, under the Day One Pinball banner. You certainly know a few companies would could do assembly for you, but most most important, who else besides you could bring this game to life with the appropriate love and dedication?
Enough talk, time to take control and make your dream theme happen!!! -- just don' take pre-orders.

Yeah I think Terry should certainly ruin his successful business and in fact his entire life by deciding to get into the pinball machine manufacturing game!

Too late! He already did.
