In 1978, Richie was among the earliest musicians to sport a Mohawk, taking inspiration from the Travis Bickle character in the movie Taxi Driver.
After leaving the Plasmatics in 1984, Richie pursued a solo career with his band King Flux and a graduate degree in Geology. Richie appears in a brief cameo in 9½ Weeks, movie with Kim Basinger. He's recognizable by the blonde mohawk and chainsaw tattoo in a party scene.
He was a great friend of Joey Ramone and was one of several speakers at a CBGB's all-star tribute put on by Micky Leigh, Joey's brother, in 2001. Dee Dee Ramone was also a friend; the two composed "Punishment Fits the Crime" which appeared on the 1989 Brain Drain album by the Ramones.
In 2004, he collaborated with singer-songwriter Carla Lother on several songs for her 100 Lovers album.
