December 31, 2002

ROB ZOMBIE says that assembling a such a quality line-up for the RAMONES tribute album, "We're A Happy Family", was very time-consuming. The album is due Feb. 11, but the release date has changed several times. Zombie worked with RAMONES guitarist Johnny Ramone as co-producer of the project. He was asked if he was surprised to see big guns such as the RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, U2, and KISS sign on to participate in the project. "Yes and no.
