Akron '72 pro-shot film?

I was reading Harold Colson's page on the '72 tour today, and noticed that some of the press clippings on the Akron show note that the band were flanked on stage by large screens in which a closed-circuit video projection system displayed the concert for the people in the nose-bleed seats in the Rubber Bowl stadium.

Does this mean there is a pro-shot film of the Akron 1972 performance somewhere out there?

It's not mentioned on Nico's site that it was filmed and he knows everything!

To have another film from any of those tours from 1969-1973 would be absolutely awesome!

Many people probably know and get told to keep it a secret.
Why? Who fucken knows..money probably..its only useful for roughly 1000 people and as time goes becomes more irrelevant.

Who on earth would care? It' 44 years old, and it's only 3 guys left from that period in todays band. -Also it's way too much guitar to handle for todays fans>grinning smiley<

Maybe it was only filmed for the use during the concert and not taped/recorded?

My guess is that is wasn't professionally filmed a-la the shows for GS, L&G, LRS:AA, SG:LIT'78, LSTNT or LATM, but would be more in common with the video footage we have of Seattle and Pontiac 1981 and Leeds 1982.
Which means it would still be great to see.

And it would be pretty interesting and awesome to see the Mick Taylor lineup in a stadium setting.

The bootleg from that show is not a great recording, but it was a pretty good show, in my opinion...

My first Stones show. I too, thought it was pretty good but I too, have also never heard a good recording of it.
