Haley left NY too early....she needed to be at this....
Quote:Some of the largest names in the music industry will come together on Wednesday night for "12.12.12 The Concert for Sandy Relief," and through several live streams and social media integrations, the charity concert will reach an unprecedented amount of people.
"This has become a global event," Zena Burns, VP of digital programming platforms for Clear Channel Media and Entertainment, told Mashable. "Between TV, radio and online streaming on YouTube, Hulu, AOL, iHeartRadio and Time Inc brands, the concert will reach nearly 2 billion homes worldwide as the most widely distributed music event in history."
Quote:Bon Jovi, Eric Clapton, Dave Grohl, Billy Joel, Alicia Keys, Chris Martin, The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, Roger Waters, Kanye West, Eddie Vedder, The Who and Paul McCartney will perform at the one-night concert at 7:30 p.m. EST at New York City's Madison Square Gardens, benefitting victims of Hurricane Sandy through the Robin Hood Relief Fund.
Roger Watters, formerly of Pink Floyd,just let out on Jimmy Kimmel's show that He will close his set with Eddie Vedder doing the vocals for the song "Comfortably Numb"
should be interesting....

I was watching the Waters' set and saw this guy singing who looked/dressed 'sort of' like Vedder and I thought..."Who the eff is that? What happened to Vedder's face, and he doesn't even sound like Vedder any more"...
Then the real Eddie Vedder came out for "Comfortably Numb"....thank goodness
I thought I had lost my mind or Vedder had a ton of plastic surgery 
Even though Pearl Jam is 'from' the NW, I was never a big fan...I thought Nirvana, Alice in Chains and Soundgarden were better. But I've got to give Vedder props, he sounded pretty good.
I was fortunate to see Pink Floyd once and Roger Waters twice and I have to say, Waters was by far the better concert experience. Except for David Gilmour highlights, the Pink Floyd show was a bit of a let down.
I love David Gilmour, fantastic guitarist and vocalist, but Roger Waters is the showman and heart and soul of Pink Floyd
(BTW...Kanye West...what a disgrace. It almost feels like the tries to make himself more of an a$$ every time he performs....who buys his stuff and what are they on?)

Roger Waters put on a fantastic set at 121212. He is into doing the visually spectacular. Notice how he struts around the stage like he's the ring master. He also need a lot of support since his vocal and musical abilities are limited. Gilmore has stated that he has lost interest in doing those kind of shows although he has done them, without Waters, in the past. Watch the "Delicate Sound of Thunder" concert done the late 80s.
Kanye West - terrible at the 121212 show although some of the audience seemed to like it. Lyrics are a big part of rap but I had no idea what he was saying.
