Rare VHS bootleg tape of “Ramones - Tokyo - 1991,” a recording of the band’s legendary show at Tokiwa-za in Tokyo, Japan, on February 6, 1991. Includes the original white paper slipcase with an affixed set list of all 29 songs the Ramones played that night, which reads: “1. Durango 95, 2. Lobotomy, 3. Psycho Therapy, 4. Blitzkrieg Bop, 5. Rock N’ Roll Radio, 6. I Believe in Miracles, 7. Shock Treatment, 8. Rock N’ Roll High School, 9. I Wanna Be Sedated, 10. The KKK Took My Baby Away, 11. I Wanna Live, 12. Bonzo Goes to Bitburg, 13.

The consignor notes that this video was personally seized by the Ramones band management when Johnny Ramone discovered that they were being illegally sold at a Ramones show in Japan. ‘When Johnny Ramone returned from their Japanese tour he called me up and asked me if I wanted a copy of the few remaining bootleg VHS cassettes. I said ‘YES’ and a week later this very VHS cassette showed up at my PO Box in Washington, D.C.’
