jabe Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 These are photos I took on May 18, 1977. Recently found them, far from the best quality. Kind of gives a different perspective from most concert pics. Quote
Texas Melanie Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Very cool. Thank you for sharing. Did Page have a costume change or is that just the lighting that makes it look dark in the 5th photo? Quote
jabe Posted February 2, 2012 Author Posted February 2, 2012 Very cool. Thank you for sharing. Did Page have a costume change or is that just the lighting that makes it look dark in the 5th photo? I believe it's the lighting, MissMelanie. The lighting also nixed me getting a decent shot of Robert thrusting his tambourine skyward during Stairway. As you can tell, I had wedged myself pretty close to the stage at this point. Quote
HeyHeyWhatCanIDo Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Nice to see pictures from this concert. If I had been around back then I would have gone to it since I live about 100 miles north of Birmingham. I got one of those '77 tour shirts a few years ago and wore it to class one day knowing my computer science professor liked Zeppelin. He told me my shirt was cool and then I said I wished I could have seen them in Birmingham in '77. He then told me he went to that concert when he was 15. I already knew my professor was cool but that confirmed it. Quote
PlanetPage Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 ....Jabe, thank you ever so much for sharing your beautiful memories....being so close to The most sought after Stage of the 70's, I can only say how luck you were... The beautiful 70's shiny hair...Your photos have captured incredible culture surrounding Led Zeppelin, as this is how I, or anyone, remembers the atomsphere to be of that incredible era... Quote
jabe Posted February 8, 2012 Author Posted February 8, 2012 Here are a couple more from Birmingham. Far from decent photos. Actually pretty crappy, but I'm putting out what I took that memorable night. They are what they are. John Paul Jones introduced his triple neck on this night. (Plant refered to it as JPJ 'secret weapon') I'm guessing the first shot is 'Ten Years Gone'. Quote
ledzepfilm Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Awesome! Great to see more photos surfacing. Can't wait for more! Quote
