Hey! Ho! Let's go!. With the velocity of a Ramones song, Lobotomy rockets from nights at CBGB's to the breakup of the Ramones' happy family with an unrelenting backbeat of hate and squalor: his girlfriend ODs; drug buddy Johnny Thunders steals his ode to heroin, "Chinese Rock"; Sid Vicious shoots up using toilet water; and a pistol-wielding Phil Spector holds the band hostage in Beverly Hills. Lobotomy is a lurid and unlikely temperance tract from the underbelly of rock 'n' roll. It isn't pretty. Taking readers on a wild rollercoaster ride from his crazy childhood in Berlin and Munich to his lonely methadone-soaked stay at a cheap hotel in Earl's Court and newfound peace on the straight and narrow, Dee Dee Ramone catapults readers into the raw world of sex, addiction, and two-minute songs

"but a good read! It's Dee Dee" according to Eric Busch. Disjointed, but a good read! It's Dee Dee, honest and painful in parts.. Gimme Gimme More Pages Kitten With a Whip I reviewed the first edition of this book, "Poison Heart", a couple of years ago and have since revised my opinion a little. We were lucky enough to get Dee Dee to sign our copies last year and he was so friendly and happy to do it, I thought I'd re-read it and give the book another chance.I waited a looong time for this book, and I wish I could say it was 100% worth the wait. Before I thought maybe 70%
"Lobotomy is the quintessential punk-rock survival story- .drug addled lows, gig-fueled highs, and financial woe induced bitterness." -- Dennis Cooper, Art & Culture
