12/12/12

A charity concert is being held on that memorable date for the victims of Hurricane (or Superstorm or whatever we're calling it now) Sandy. The RAMP Newsletter has the details this morning...

The caliber of artists who have agreed to step up and participate in the upcoming 12-12-12 (A Concert For Sandy Relief) event at New York's Madison Square Garden makes this show truly an A-list extravaganza -- we're talking Paul McCartney, Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, The Who, Dave Grohl, Alicia Keys, Roger Waters, Kanye West and Eddie Vedder who have already been announced, and more big names are set to follow. 12-12-12 is a collaborative production by James Dolan, Executive Chairman of The Madison Square Garden Company, John Sykes, President of Clear Channel Entertainment Enterprises and Harvey Weinstein, Co-Founder and Chairman of The Weinstein Company.
Proceeds from the show will help raise money to provide assistance to the millions of people throughout the tri-state area who have been so hard-hit by Hurricane Sandy.
