Los Angeles,CA-The Forum- June 22, 1977

This was the second night in Los Angeles at the Forum out of six nights. This show was the second time Jimmy Page wore the black dragon suit on the 1977 US tour-the first being at Landover, Maryland 5-28-77. He played all of the show in the black dragon suit except when he came back for the end of Moby Dick he wore the white dragon suit. I think this along with the previous night 6-21-77 and the next night 6-23-77 are some of the best shows from the tour. I think Over the Hills and Far Away was a last minute song to be played as it is later in the set and not at position 4th song of the set like at other shows. I want to thank Jeff Weho who gave me permission to post his pics. He was very lucky to see quite a lot of the Los Angeles shows in 1975 and 1977. The audio of this show isn't as good as the 6-21 and 6-23 shows but is still enjoyable. I have posted a link to some nice video footage from this show.

Oops...I thought he wore the black suit on the 25th.

BUT...this is the show where Page's pants started falling down after NFBM; anybody know when exactly he changed outfits on this gig- based on the above pix, he obviously did at some point. Mind ya, in '77 Jimmy was so fuckin' skinny my sister in law's twelve year old's clothes probably would have fit the guy!
