Robert Plant: Kinderminster, UK 1989-12-23 (5 song)

Imagine being in Kinderminster Shopping Mall in Kinderminster, UK two days before Christmas and seeing Robert Plant singing cover tunes of other artists. Well, if you were there in 1989 that is exactly what you would've seen :-) I'm still not sure what the complete story is on this one?

"The complete story on this one," from what I've heard, is that Mr. Plant faced a DUI charge in his local district (tsk, tsk) and, to avoid a criminal record, agreed to this charity gig. The guys in the band are cops. Can't you tell just by lookin' at 'em? ;-) Poor bastard, forced to sing crap like Bryan Adams just to avoid a rap sheet. Btw, the name of the town is Kidderminster, not Kinder... . The name of the mall is Swan Centre, and the name of the band was "Out of the Blue" (get it?).

that was the coolest, freakiest thing in the world. i've gotta make a call overseas and see if anyone remembers what this was all about. it would seem to me that it must be some folks he knows in his old stomping grounds who themselves were playing there all day, or even days, to raise money for some sort of charity and knowing how robert is as a person, he figured he would have some fun and help the cause. bravo!
