Credits from DVD

During the end credits from Zeppelin's DVD I noticed 2 very quick film clips from what I think is from Pittsburgh 73'.

The first (which comes right after the clip of Bonham twirling his drumsticks) is from about the center of the floor, in this clip I also noticed a guy crouching down on the right side of the stage with a camera in his lap getting into position to film. It last's less than a second, so don't blink. The 2nd clip is shooting from behind and above the crowd.

I've always been under the impression that they only rolled a single camera from the side of the stage as a test reel for the first few tunes of this concert.

But, after noticing these quick clips I am convinced that they filmed the entire concert

in a full multiple camera production mode in preparation for filming the MSG gigs,

which really makes perfect sense.

Weren't those scenes in TSRTS with Grant chewing the guy out backstage, and the cops letting the kids sneak in, both from Pittsburg? So there was clearly lots of filming going on that night.....hmmmm...(already imagining the complete "Pittsburg '73" bootleg DVD.. :D yeah baby

No, those in-the-dressing room shots were from Baltimore, not Pittsburgh. However, the scenes of arriving at the airport and driving away with the police escort are all from Pittsburgh ... up until the time when they hit (I believe) the Holland Tunnel and end up in NYC. Also, a lot of Pittsburgh tape ended up in the Travelling Riverside Blues video as well.

I'm curious then Solar. The guy who gets his ass chewed by Grant is also seen when they leave the stage and jump into the limos. Would that then mean he was not Baltimore security and was actually travelling with the band, or was the leaving the stage footage not from NY?
