This is not true at all!  I was as big a Plant slammer as anybody until I
saw he and Page live at the Budokan a few months ago.  I've done a complete
about face in my thinking.  He hit all the high notes and sounded GREAT!  I
was really surprised, as I was expecting him to just limp through it.

On the other hand, after seeing and hearing more and more '89 Who
performances, the sad, inescapable conclusion is that *Roger* is the one
whose voice is on the skids, not Planty (although he didn't sound bad in
DST).
