Joey Poole (March 5, 1957 – June 1, 2020), known professionally as Joey Image, was an American punk rock drummer. He joined the Misfits in November 1978. He was the drummer for both the "Horror Business" and "Night of the Living Dead" sessions of 1979.[1]
He also played for the Misfits on October 26, 2000, at Culture Room, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, one day after Dr. Chud had left the band along with Michale Graves. As the band had no drummer and was playing in the same area as Joey, Jerry Only decided to call him to play some songs such as "Horror Business", "We Are 138", "Attitude", "Teenagers From Mars", "Hollywood Babylon", "London Dungeon", and "Where Eagles Dare". Eric Arce from Murphy's Law played the rest of the setlist songs.[2]
Personal life
Image spent most of his life in New York City, and later in Florida.[2] Some time after his 1979 departure from the Misfits, Image married actress and model Patty Mullen[3][4] and in 2003, he moved to Los Angeles, California. As of 2007, he had relocated to South Florida. In 2016, he was diagnosed with liver cancer[5] and died on June 1, 2020.[6]
