Johnny Blitz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Madansky, known as Johnny Blitz, is a punk rock drummer from Cleveland, Ohio, best known as being a member of the bands The Dead Boys and Rocket From The Tombs. With the Dead Boys he helped pioneer the punk rock sound, look and attitude of the mid to late 1970s.
A Boston Globe retrospective described a Dead Boys concert. "The first time I saw Stiv Bators and his band, the Dead Boys, was at the Rat in 1976, with about 50 other people. At one point, the bare-chested Bators stuck his head inside the kick drum as drummer Johnny Blitz played. Bators followed by jumping to his feet and slashing his chest with a broken bottle."
Johnny appeared in the Bryan Adams video montage Reckless in 1984.
