This isn't complete--some dates are listed as TBA, and I KNOW there was a Stooges/MC5 show stuck in there at some point--so I'll keep my eyes peeled for revised versions of the ad throughout that summer's issues. Still, I was so stoked to find this that I had to make a premature share!

I absolutely saw Led Zeppelin at the pavilion in 69 or 70. The floor featured a mosaic map of New York State. I was standing on Bethel, New York which had recently been enshrined in the hippie hall of fame. Believe it or not, I think Larry Coryell opened for Zeppelin
I was at a show at the Pavilion around 69,70 Zeppelin shared the bill with the Chambers Brothers for sure , I only saw those bands once, on the same bill at the Pavilion. Yours truly T. Messina
I was there to witness the first Stooges NY show, as well as Iron Butterfly.. Great days! I went bike riding there today, almost 50 years later!
Stu Reben- I was in charge of security there along with two friends. We worked two Led Zep shows one weekend at The Pavilion in 1969, when John Bonham did indeed slump over on his drums whether from drinking or lack of sleep. He was carried off the stage and the guys finished the set without him.
