Eric Clapton and Coldplay's Chris Martin have been added to the bill for the 12/12/12 Hurricane Sandy relief concert... but it wasn't a concern to sell tickets. The event, to be held at Madison Square Garden, sold out quickly, thanks to a stellar line-up featuring Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Bon Jovi, Eddie Vedder and many more. Even Kanye West, who I hope will behave better than his infamous Hurricane Katrina telethon moment. This was no slouch of a show beforehand, and the addition of Eric Clapton and Chris Martin make it that much more worth watching on December 12th.
HBO, CBS and Palladia are just 3 of the numerous channel broadcasting the show. You can find a full channel line-up here: http://www.121212concert.org/watch
Several websites, including People.com and Hulu.com will stream the concert as well.
All the proceeds from 12/12/12 go to The Robin Hood Relief Fund, which has helped thousands of Hurricane Sandy victims already, and will continue to do so as the east coast recovers from the storm.
