Marky Ramone & The Speedkings

Started in 2000 as Marky Ramone Group after [a=Nick CQ Cooper] met Marky Ramone while they were with their previous bands ([a=The Buckweeds!] and Marky Ramone And The Intruders respectively). Their first recording was on a Ramones tribute compilation. In 2001 they changed their name to Marky Ramone & The Speedkings due to legal issues and released a handful of singles and an album. They broke up in 2004 due to the band not being able to tour as often as they would like due to Marky's schedule.
