(hennemusic) The Ramones were honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's Grammy Awards earlier this month.

Don't worry, you didn't miss it during the exhaustingly-long TV broadcast; it was one of the pre-show awards that were handed out the day before.

A few members of the band's extended family were on hand to pick up the honor. The late Johnny Ramone's wife, Linda, accepted on his behalf; Osaka Popstar vocalist John Cafiero spoke for the late Dee Dee Ramone; Joey Ramone's brother, Mickey Leigh, accepted on his behalf; and, lastly, the band's original drummer and sole survivor, Tommy Ramone, was on hand to accept the award presented on behalf of himself and his bandmates.
