Photos from Fin Costello
Exact date/location unknown, but suggested to be around April.
Note, Geddy can be seen using his original Fender Precision bass, which we don't have many photos of him using after he got the Rickenbacker in August 1974. We know that sometime in 1976 he had it cut down into the teardrop shape, repainted blue/white, and changed the pickups, after which its sound changed greatly and is easily identifiable during encores on All The World's A Stage tour recordings. Prior to it being rebuilt, I am not sure when or how often he used this bass instead of the Rickenbacker.
Photos from unknown
Note, the full size image can only be found online in really poor resolution, all other versions crop the entire bottom portion. Both versions are shared here.
It's easy to mistake this one as the same show as those above due to the bass and outfits, but this photo isn't ever credited to Fin Costello, and you can see Alex's pants are a lighter color, plus looks like Geddy may be wearing a darker shirt underneath his white jacket.
