Marky Ramone Presented and Owned MTV Video Music Moonman Award (2001). A one-of-a-kind item consigned directly by the legendary Ramones drummer himself. Presented five days before 9/11, this has "Marky Ramone / The Ramones / September 6, 2001" on the plaque. Though the Ramones never had the sales numbers that most mainstream acts are judged by, they helped inspired the punk genre and their influence is still felt. Stripping pop songs down to their melodic core, the band was inspired by rock n' roll greats and modern bands like the New York Dolls, the Stooges, and the MC5. Sticking to a sound for decades over numerous LPs and thousands of live shows, the band never gave in and put things to an end when they wanted to. The iconic Moonman has been given to performers for decades as part of the MTV Video Music Awards ceremony. This one measures approx. 12" tall and 5" in diameter. In Very Good condition with a lot of scuffing and scraping throughout, along with rubbing wear on the top portion, along with a white mark on the top. COA from Heritage Auctions.
