    I was there when this was done. The was just 80 to 100 strong and it was brilliant.
    Robert gave up his time to raise money for charity. There are people on here who are moaning, one idiot calls him 'an old goat'. Another says he doesn't do much for charity. He raises thousands of GBP pounds every year.
    As a local, we see Robert out and about quite regularly. He and his family are lovely people. If you can't say anything good, then say nothing at all.

      Same here. Brilliant and on top form. The band did well and were talented in their own right. I remember the 'Busking Bobby's'' singer saying immediately after Robert left, "How do I follow that".

    Those officers were probably so thrilled to be playing with the great Robert Plant, even if he didn't know a couple of the songs very well, he did his very best as always and he's just so charming and his harmonica, love that!

    I was there when this was done. It was in the local Swan shopping center and started at 12pm.
    The crowd was just 80 to 100 strong. Robert was on top form, as was the band.
    The band were all serving police officers. Their band was called 'The Busking Bobbies'. Robert was there with his daughter, Carmen. He completed his few songs he then left and went to his local pub which I won't name on here.

    I’ve been told by someone who’s closely related to Plant that the extent of his charitable altruism reaches far more than what is revealed publicly. I have no way to confirm this but it doesn’t seem to be all that implausible.

      Celebrities don’t all or alway talk about charitable work they do. I heard he donated Covid supplies, I don’t know what or how much, but if he could obtain it a decent amount. He a good man, & actually cares about people, more then many celebrities.

    Aww, so cute singing in his hometown. He got rid of that 80's hairdo and went back to his glorious curls. He sounds great, especially on Rock and Roll and All Along The Watchtower, Zep should've done that in one of their shows.

    Well done, Robert... for charity's sake first and foremost. I've heard he was "encouraged" to participate after a DUI incident the night prior? In any event, how wonderful he sounds in his natural voice, and not "pushing" it as he historically had to do on the "hits" of the Zeppelin catalogue. And he finally had the assertiveness and leverage to put "Rock and Roll" at the end of sets rather than the beginning. Not to mention, "Every Breath You Take" isn't in the best key for him, yet he still pulls it off well. His intro to "Rock and Roll" also sheds insights into how intimidating challenging vocals were for him in live performance.

    Plowmen dig my earth
    None will level on the line
    Nobody offered his word

    There are many here among us
    Who feel that life is but a joke
    But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
    And this is not our fate
    So let us stop talkin' falsely now
    The hour's getting late, hey
    Hey

    Princes kept the view
    While all the women came and went
    Barefoot servants, too
    Well, uh, outside in the cold distance
    A wildcat did growl
    Two riders were approaching
    And the wind began to howl, hey
