  Beyond The Ramones:
The Ramainz


The Ramainz are Dee Dee Ramone (guitar and vocals), Barbara Zampini (Dee Dee's wife - sometimes known as Barbara Ramone, bass and vocals), and Marky Ramone (Drums). The group was first called "The Remains," but they changed the name in 1999 because there was another band with the same name.  C.J. Ramone (guitar and vocals) played with The Remains for their first two shows on December 18, 1996, and December 28, 1996.  The Remains played without C.J. on April 26, 1997.  On November 29, 1997, Ben Trokan (from Marky Ramone and The Intruders) joined The Remains on guitar.
