[QUOTE="Lee Brenkman, post: 4178, member: 154"] These recently came to my attention. They were taken May 11th 1969 at the Greenlake Aqua Theatre in Seattle. This venue was only used for a few rock shows at the very end of the 1960s. The stage, originally part of an Aquacade show with divers, synchronized swimmers etc. sat between the sound and the pool. The audience of about 5,000 sat in concrete bleachers on the other side of the pool. Probably good for security but not great for the acoustics. Note the usual for the era minimal miking of the drums and backline. The Marshall head on the stage left "Jimmy Page" side of the drums is not sitting on top of the box with the two re-entrant horns, it just looks like it from this angle. The only thing that vaguely resembles a monitor anywhere is the single cabinet stage left facing towards center stage. [/QUOTE]
