2.

A chant used by the audience at a Ramonesconcert. It comes from their tune "Blitzkrieg Bop". According to some source, Joey Ramone wanted a chant styled similar to the one used in the chorus of "Saturday Night" by the Bay City Rollers (S A T-U-R T-U-R Day!).

At every Ramones concert the lights are dimmed, dry ice obscures the stage, a recording of the classic spaghetti Westernmovie theme "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" is playing, audience members are chanting "Hey ho lets go!", you see men wearing leather jackets and blue jeans bustling around. Then you hear a guitar note, and the bassist shouts "1-2-3-4!". Then the band erupts into "Durango 95" and in the mosh pitall hell breaks loose. An evening of rock'n'rollfun, chaos and excitement begins.
