Billie Joe Armstrong To Front Cretin Family Supergroup At Hollywood Forever Ramones 50th Anniversary Event

Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong will front Cretin Family, a punk supergroup that includes Rancid’s Tim Armstrong, blink-182’s Travis Barker and CJ Ramone, at the Ramones’ 50th Anniversary event at Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles August 30.

Cretin Family — in their first live performance — will be joined by “special surprise guests” as they perform a set of Ramones favorites. The event, hosted by John Travolta, will also include a 50th anniversary screening of “Carrie” and of Travolta’s new film “Propeller One-Way Night Coach.” Shepard Fairey will DJ.

Proceeds from the event support the David Agus MD Cancer Research at Ellison Institute. Tickets are available here.
