I don't know if it's been asked before, but I think some people have wondered about it for a long time.
So, does anyone know why most footage from the Feb 28th and Mar 1st Paris gigs comes from a single camera angle which was placed in the back of the auditorium? I say most because there's some multi-cam footage in The Champions (documentary), but apart from those bits there's only this one-camera footage.
Also, what's always puzzled me is the fact that there are no cameras spotted under the stage (neither on the video nor on photos). There was at least one down there (WATC from the last gig).
Multiple angles excist from all 3 nights.
I gues there were never any commercial plans for it so that make sense not spending any money on a edit. Why spent money if there are no plans! They got the Tokyo for free a few weeks later!
There are camera angles from FM his piano and some from the back of the stage as well.
And left side of the hall.
At least 4 angles.
It could be that the first 2 shows were used as testers or as fillers.

Edit :
It is nonsense that this was recorded by or for the fanclub : as the fanclub could not spent so much money on filming this. Nor would the band have spent so much money as a gift to the fanclub.
Why this was recorded ? Good question : perhaps as visual support to live killers , or a discarted live release....
Archive ? Who knows.
