Robert Plant
Presents the Sensational Space Shifters has announced its first North
American tour dates. This dynamic and powerful new incarnation of
Plant’s musical vision has been touring the world, most
recently in Australia and New Zealand. The Brisbane Times said “What's
going on is further proof that Plant is far more imaginative, playful
and adventurous than any cliché, a man who's absorbed all the music
he's loved and played and sought out the musicians to explore that,”
while
Adelaide Now hailed, “The Sensational Space Shifters are everything their name suggests.”

TEEN CANCER AMERICA
Roger Daltrey and
Pete Townshend of The Who are the driving force behind Teen Cancer
America. After over a decade working with Teenage Cancer Trust in the
UK, the duo's decided to bring their passion across
the pond and make a difference in the lives of teens and young adults
with cancer in the United States. Inspired by Roger and Pete's passion
to bring teen cancer awareness to America and improve the lives of young
adults with cancer, the founding members of
the Teen Cancer America organization were formed. Today we stand strong
as a charity devoted to improving the lives of teenagers and young
adults with cancer. Teen Cancer America partners with hospitals to
create youth-oriented centers for those receiving
treatment. These units provide peer support and interaction while
receiving treatment at in-patient and out-patient clinics.
