Texas Melanie Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Thank you for posting those. I have never seen 77 Houston photos before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStairwayRemainsTheSame Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 My pleasure, that picture of Jimmy I used to have on my bedroom wall without the writing. Hopefully I find it on the net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Are you just posting those photos just because they are on the cover of a bootleg of the same date? According to the official site, these are Houston: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom kid Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I wouldn't be so sure those pictures are from Houston Stairway, quite often bootleg covers don't correspond to the date of the show of that particular boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStairwayRemainsTheSame Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Are you just posting those photos just because they are on the cover of a bootleg of the same date? No. I know these shots are also from the show they are just bigger, higher quality versions on the bootleg cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) How do you know? The band shot can't be houston, in the photos Sam posted JPJ is wearing all white, and in that shot he's wearing brown pants. Must be from Cleveland or something. The Bonham shot with the riser up front is Houston though. Edited February 17, 2012 by ledzepfilm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bonham shot with the riser up front is Houston though. and I'm pretty sure that the photo used for the EVSD release of "The Dragon Snake" is from Pontiac, based on the belt Robert's wearing, since he (as far as I know) only wore the belt that one night.

The screen was directly above in Pontiac, there is no evidence of a screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamf4k Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Here's a comparison shot from Pontiac: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 You're right, that is Pontiac. FYI, that's not the screen in the back, it's a mirror. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamf4k Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Robert's wearing the same belt in both photos, and I'm almost positive he never wore that belt any other night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can that be a mirror when Jimmy is not in the air in the mirror? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidZoso Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I went to many shows at the Summit and the screens were- one above the stage and another one back by the rear upper prom. I have several shows that I was at and have the videos in my collection including Aerosmith 1984 and Aerosmith 1988. I also have videos that I was too young to have been there- The Who- 1975--(which was the first ever concert at the Summit in Houston) Aerosmith 2 shows 1977, etc. I will say 75% of the shows used the closed circuit video system that I attended and I saw about 65 shows there - so Led Zeppelin's show is a very good possibility. I have talked to about 5 people that saw the show and they say they don't remember if the video screens were working. Some other Led Zeppelin shows besides the Pontiac 1977 show that may exist are the 2 shows in Cleveland at the Richfield Coliseum-4 27 & 28, 1977 maybe even the one from 1975 as I have a complete show that was there of the Who from 1975. It is complete and is a 2 camera shot on their closed circuit video system like the Summits in Houston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 The Rover, a member here claimed he was there and said there were no cameramen or video screens present. Stairway, it might be an illusion of the mirror angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamf4k Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 How can that be a mirror when Jimmy is not in the air in the mirror? I noticed the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rover Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) The Rover, a member here claimed he was there and said there were no cameramen or video screens present. Stairway, it might be an illusion of the mirror angle. That is correct. Sad to say, no video in Houston. That's why you will Never see any stills from Houston, with any video camermen in the pictures. I sat in the center, straight back, in the second section back, so I would have easily seen any video images on any screen. I knew about the screen, and I was intentionally looking for it. But that said, it was very good Zeppelin show to be present at. It was almost as good as the next night in Ft. Worth. Zep had had some time off, and they were in their stride for these shows in May !! Edited February 28, 2012 by The Rover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) How did the rumor start that there was video from Houston? It's hard to argue with the people actually there, so that's why I agree with The Rover. Edited March 10, 2012 by ledzepfilm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
