LED ZEPPELIN fan-site Lemon Squeezings is reporting:
ROBERT PLANT appeared to have been house-shopping in Malibu, CA, when he was spotted by a photographer at the mall for this photo printed by British tabloid The Sun on September 29.

Yet four hundred miles from Malibu, Plant made his third and fourth onstage performances all year long in a single weekend. Both times, he played with Nashville session musician BUDDY MILLER over the weekend in San Francisco, including at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass festival yesterday.
