Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters performing at David Lynch’s Festival of Disruption on October 2016
In October 2016, Robert Plant performed many Led Zeppelin favorites with his band the Sensational Space Shifters at a charitable event at the Ace Hotel and Theater in Los Angeles. On Sunday, March 5, at 10 p.m. Eastern / 7 p.m. Pacific, AXS TV will present the concert, Live at David Lynch’s Festival of Disruption. Best Classic Bands is premiering a clip of their performance of “Whole Lotta Love.”
The special captures the band’s headlining set at the visionary auteur’s gathering which benefitted the David Lynch Foundation.
The hour-long event, says the press announcement, “gives fans a rare opportunity to experience the legendary front man as they’ve never seen or heard him before, as he playfully interacts with the crowd and puts a new spin on beloved classics and modern favorites in an intimate setting.” Highlights include stripped down and acoustic renditions of Led Zeppelin classic rock hits “Black Dog,” “Babe I’m Gonna Leave You,” and “Whole Lotta Love,” as well as solo standouts “Turn It Up,” “Rainbow,” “The Enchanter,” “Little Maggie,” and more.
The two-day Festival of Disruption event included talks by Mel Brooks, Blondie’s Debbie Harry and Chris Stein, and others.
