  Episode Notes  
A lot of references are made about how The Ramones are over the hill and Lily even says that she was afraid "they were going to die" onstage. Ironically, lead singer Joey Ramone died in March, less than two months after this episode premiered.
 
After the death of Joey Ramone, some of Lily's dialogue in this episode was changed for subsequent reruns. Lily's line where she said that she said she thought The Ramones were going to die was actually changed to "They were no Green Day" because it matched up with the lip movements.
