Robin Gibb to join Bill Wyman and his Rhythm Kings

A unique music event will take place at the Heritage Foundation's Annual Summer Ball on the evening of June 20th 2009 at the Millennium Hotel in London's Grosvenor Square, when the charity's president, Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees, will play live on stage with rock legend and former Rolling Stone Bill Wyman with his Rhythm Kings.

The two friends are coming together to help raise funds to build a memorial to the forgotten heroes of the Second World War - the men of Bomber Command. Of all the branches of the armed forces, they faced the deadliest odds, with 55,573 killed, almost half of all those who flew on operations over occupied Europe. Yet nearly 70 years on, there is no monument in central London to their sacrifice.

Better known for its blue plaque tributes to deceased members of the entertainment professions, The Heritage Foundation combines paying tribute to Britain's wealth of talent who have bought pleasure and joy to millions through their performances or technical skills with raising funds for good causes through The Arts and Entertainment Charitable Trust.
