I don't think there were any cameras on stage. And Getty Images can have the dates wrong. There was a set supposedly from July 29 but it was from the 27th. There are photos from the 23rd listed as May 1! The dates are right but that photo with the screen is either from the 17th or 18th.
-
I think so. If the picture was in better quality and JPJ wasn't washed out, I could probably date this picture. The still with the video screen (IMTOD) does not match with the 24th or 25th. Robert is not wearing the red blouse, so it's not the 23rd. If JPJ is wearing white, it's the 17th. If not, it's the 18th.
-
Yes, I am referring to those clips.
The picture Geezer posted is the same date as the photo with the video screen. I believe that is the 17th.
-
Fixed that for you!
Well, that was so kind of you.
Also, current list of proshot footage:
1969:
Danish TV 3/17
Supershow 3/18 (shot that day)
Tous En Scene 6/19
1970:
RAH 1/9
Iceland 6/22 (shot by TV news crew)
Bath 6/28 (likely)
1973:
Atlanta 5/4
Tampa 5/5 (shot by TV news crew)
Pittsburgh 7/24 (test footage)
MSG 7/27,28,29
1975:
MSG 2/7 (shot by TV news crew)
Earls Court (24, 25 circulating; 17th confirmed; those photos showing the video screen have Robert in a black blouse, and on the 23rd he wore the red blouse; 18th and 23rd were more than likely filmed.)
1977:
Pontiac 4/30
Houston and Landover (not likely as the video screens were not in use and cameras were not reportedly used)
Seattle 7/17
1979:
Knebworth 8/4,11

Most of that footage was shot from the right side of the stage. There was another cameraman positioned near the left side, shooting from below.
Again, it was just test footage. There is no doubt in my mind that they shot more than those two clips, but definitely not the entire concert.
-
Yes, it's just film shot by a roadie. Probably the same person who caught the 29th on 8mm.
-
It was just test footage for TSRTS. I doubt they shot much.
-
Dallas Knebs, can you elaborate on that Zurich video? Angle(s), songs, etc. Maybe you can obtain that sample from the collector?
-
^ Made my night.
-
If it's difficult for me to do it (and I think I came pretty close), then imagine what a complete thing of all 3 nights would be.
-
Definitely. Sorting and syncing the footage they shot is an absolute nightmare.
-
Geezer, yes, but two years ago. The Rover, a member here who was actually at the Houston show, said that the screens were NOT in use.
Maybe with pontiac they wanted to release a live dvd performance and felt the need to use camera man for better shots... It's very possible that the houston show was also recorded through cameras from the upper wings that would not be available to the audience.
Would be really cool to have a properly recorded 1973 show indeed. I always thought that Zepp should just take the fantasies out and release a three DVD set with the three MSG shows from 1973.
Pontiac was used only for the people who couldn't see in the back. Seattle, Earls Court, and Knebworth were shot the same way.
-
Dallas Knebs, Zurich has no proven evidence. Again, it's just a rumor. Houston is a more wide known rumor, but people AT THE SHOW said the video screens were not in action. Have you seen photos from Pontiac? They clearly have crew members on the stage. Same with Atlanta 1973, which hasn't surfaced yet. I'd love to see a properly filmed 1973 show.
-
^ Indeed, but in the case of Houston and Zurich there are no evidence of cameras in photos, and as I explained earlier, people from the Houston show claimed that the video screens were not in use. Zurich is just a rumor with no evidence. For Landover, the caption for that picture of the screen claimed that the screens were not in action.

Listening to my sync of the recently discovered Sydney footage. I can't believe how close the guy was to film the band.

BACK...and to the left...
3 Things that is utter bullshit about that movie:
1) Shooting Kennedy from the front? No.
2) Why do people elaborate on the second shot? It was shot from the Depository hitting Kennedy and Connally. And getting hit at 193 and reacting at 225? Really?
3) There is no evidence that a Dal-Tex shooter is there.
Anyways...
Oh it is entertaining watching somebody dig a deeper hole for themselves. The dude didn't back down from his claims, though, which is what really makes it funny, even after a bunch of us called him on it.
It's hilarious how this is the exact same guy that was promising us a videotape from that EXACT SAME SHOW!
-
No reason at all why they wouldn't have gotten a copy...record breaking attendance at the show and all, it was an historic moment for the group, you'd think they'd want some kind of document...right???
Then of course there was that yahoo here a couple of years back we pretty much crucified over his bullshit claims that Peter Grant ordered the Pontiac footage destroyed
I'll try dig up that discussion, pretty funny shit there...Edit- Ah, here it is...scroll down to post 58, and set yer b.s. detectors on high:
This shouldn't even be considered bullshit. I call it quality entertainment. Claiming something that you cant prove? Ha!
-
^ Exactly! They are just tapes... not the "unaltered" Zapruder film!
-
The big screen was more than likely in use that day. Why would they film with professional video tape cameras and NOT show them on the video screen? If they did it for Earls Court, Seattle, and Knebworth, why not this concert? After all, the Silverdome is a big arena.
-
Pros:
They actually used matching footage this time!
MOST of the concert is present.
The fix in Dazed is one of the only fixes that I appreciated.
The 8mm footage is a great addition!
Cons:
Removal of Honey Bee, Plant chatter (Ahmet... we did it!), and Boogie Mama
The fix in Dazed is not perfect
Feedback.
Miminal bonus features. It was nice to have the Shepperton rehearsal on video, but something more could be nice.

I think all 5 dates were filmed. I mean, why wouldn't they be?
The photos with JPJ in white are from the 17th, I believe. 17th or 18th.
