This spring will see a homecoming for the Ramones, the 1980s punk group that formed in Forest Hills, Queens, with the retrospective Hey! Hey! Let's Go: Ramones and the Birth of Punk opening at the Queens Museum (10 April-31 July). Co-organised with the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles, to where it travels in September, the show features more than 350 items of memorabilia by artists including Arturo Vega, the designer of the band’s logo, Sergio Aragones, a cartoonist for MAD magazine and John Holmstrom, the co-founder of Punk magazine. Work by Shepard Fairey and Yoshitomo Nara will also be on view. “This is so amazing, the best RAMONES collection ever,” Linda Ramone, Johnny Ramone's widow, said in a press statement. “Gonna be a real cool time, fun for all! Gabba Gabba Hey!”
