Mickey Leigh and ‘I Slept With Joey Ramone’ at La Luz de Jesus Gallery

Gawky and sickly, Joey Ramone might not have been the brother anyone would’ve pegged for rock stardom during his youth in Queens, New York. But his younger sibling Mickey Leigh watched from the sidelines -- his own bands always falling apart -- as the Ramones helped define punk rock. Leigh will be joined by Alan Arkush, P.J. Soles, Howie Pyro and others for a group reading and signing of his new book, “I Slept With Joey Ramone: A Family Memoir.” La Luz de Jesus Gallery, 4633 Hollywood Blvd., L.A. 6 p.m. Sat. Free. (323) 666-7667.
