Supposed to be new footage....
I've seen sections of this 3:00 minute clip, but some of it was new to me. Let me know what you think.

Thank you!
There has to be even more footage, that is what I keep telling myself anyway.

That certainly is the best quality I have seen it it - 720p on you tube.

Can't wait for some actual new footage to come out. I have that footage on a VHS tape I got years ago. Mine doesn't have that tracking issue in the middle of the clip.

Little of topic but by above clip I stumped on this funny one from Paul Gilbert about replacing Randy: SCARIFIED - Episode 6: REPLACING RANDY RHOADS

Re: Supposed to be new footage....
I agree with the others & must say that this is the best quality version of the old Entertainment Tonight footage I've seen. Yes the whole unedited footage does exist - Peter M. found it while digging up stuff for the failed doco BUT unfortunately it's now all in the hands of Dakota Pictures

I believe it was the week leading up to opening night of the USA diary tour before 12/30 1981. I want to say a couple days before. Can't remember where it was filmed, it could have very well been the cow palace or in Los Angeles on or before the 31st, the only reason I say that is because i vaguely recall the cow palace being a "B" show they wouldn't have had the stage setup.orion_damage wrote:When was the footage for ET shot?barossadude wrote:I agree with the others & must say that this is the best quality version of the old Entertainment Tonight footage I've seen.

In the new footage why do the soundboards sound so bad ??
It seems like the only concerts that sound crystal clear are Southampton and the tribute with a partial exception that is the Montreal flower hour,
Who ever miced Randy's cab didn't do as good of a job, every soundboard besides the ones I have mentioned have a thin non raw amp tone sound, not to mention that the keyboards Are very overpowering on a lot of soundboards

Re: Supposed to be new footage....
That's down to the FOH PA if you notice Randy would only have one cab miced up.. So the general mix would be drums keyboards, vocals, bass and lead guitar.. i know Randy would always mention after a gig to fans what was the sound like etc..Plus his 4X12 ended up as side fill monitors with the diary stage. So the majority of the FOH sounmd was probably poor at best...
Re: Supposed to be new footage....
Yeah I have seen most of that before. It's definitely in better condition though. Thanks.
