ratster Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 This supposedly a photo taken at the Kooyong concert which I bought as a print at a swap meet...looks like a colourised B&W photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donb8 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I've come to look at this tour as being really overrated. The band never really gels. Jimmy's playing at 30% compared to the level he was playing at the us tour. No wonder the audience looks tame in that footage from Sydney.

They're definitely transitional shows, much like the Japan shows later that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidh Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I didn't look closely at this original post when I first read it, but I thought that there was no way that 80,000 people attended the Subiaco show. Not only would that have meant about 10% of the entire population of the city would have been in the one place, but Perth is one of the most isolated capital cities in the world, so it's not like people would have been traveling from all over to attend. I found a review of it here from the time that gives the much more realistic, but still extremely respectable, figure of 8,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not my favorite tour as a whole, but some of the heaviest concerts they played where done there. I love Adelaide 19th and the 2nd to last show in Sydney, great stuff and just hard driving ferocious playing, even Plant's voice was top-notch for many of those shows.

donb8 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Auckland is the best show. IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
