    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".

    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.

    • @nickpardoe8245

      As my couple of comments say, you are correct. Robert does a lot for local charities and also for the wider world.

      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.

      I love his harmonica playing, I wish he had done more of it during his Zeppelin days, there were so few songs he played it. I think it was great, he sang the songs they knew how to play, even though he didn’t really know the words. Made it more fun & exciting, love his humor too.

    I can't get no relief
    Business men, they drink my wine
    Plowmen dig my earth
    None will level on the line
    Nobody offered his word
    Hey, hey
    No reason to get excited
    The thief, he kindly spoke
    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
    All along the watchtower
    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

      I think he sang the songs the cop band knew, because he had to keep looking down at the words. I’m sure he knew the songs, just not enough to sing them. It was all in fun & for charity.
