In honor of last weekend’s passing of Ramones artistic director Arturo Vega — who designed the band’s iconic logo — we’ll use this week’s installment of Vintage Video to dig up a choice concert from the New York punk legends. This filmed performance from Sept. 13, 1978, in Bremen, Germany, finds the band ripping through 25 songs in just about 50 minutes flat… to a mostly seated audience. A little weird, but a great performance (via lucho5192).
