ROBERT PLANT with The Band of Joy coming 2-2

Former front man and voice of British "rock gods" Led Zeppelin , Robert Plant, is making a stop in Raleigh Wednesday February 2nd at Memorial Auditorium here in Raleigh. Since the break up of Led Zeppelin , Plant has maintained an on again off again relationship with music, sometimes coming as close as possible to a full on Zep reunion, which would of course be impossible because of the death of drummer John Bonham. He and guitarist Jimmy Page worked together on a few projects, but that Zeppelin magic had gotten out of the bottle, never to be captured again. In 2008 Plant collaborated with hugely talented bluegrass singer and fiddle player Alison Krauss to create Raising Sand, an album which garnered the duet 5 Grammy Awards. The Band of Joy (the original name of Plants pre-zeppelin band) is said to be a tasteful combination of the power and the tenderness Robert Plant brings out through the musicians with whom he surrounds himself.
