On 12-12-12, there is going to be a mega concert to benefit the victims of Hurricane Sandy. This concert is going to be broadcast all over the world. In the United States, it will be shown on HBO as well as one of the network channels. I believe CBS is going to broadcast the concert. This concert will be shown on many internet sites as well as heard on many, many radio stations. Among the mega stars will be Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi and the Rolling Stones. That is just a beginning. The performers are a who's who of the great names in music.
You can do an internet search to see how you might be able to listen and or watch in your country and community. I hope that you might be able to contribute to the relief efforts.

I would have loved to have been able to have watched the concert yesterday, but I was taking care of a sick child so it wasn't possible for me. However, I do think that it is great that there was a benefit concert to help the victims of Hurricane Sandy to recover from the devastation that they've faced in the last month and a half of their lives.
I wish that I was actually able to donate to the cause, but we are tapped out right now so I'm lucky to be able to take care of my family.

It was a good show but a little too long. By the end of the show, I was lying on the floor with my legs up on my chair and looking up at the TV. I wanted to go to bed but I also wanted to see the whole production. I thought some of the performances were just so-so. I would love to communicate with others who saw it and get their feedback.
I hope the production raised a lot of money for those in need. I have not read of any final tabulation although I did read that ticket sales alone brought in 30 million.
Here is to a happy, healthy and financially secure 2013 for you and your family.

It is a great concert for a very good cause. I will also be watching on HBO. We will also probably have it on demand for re-watching in days to come. Once will not be enough. I love HBO.

It took. I have been having problems trying to comment.
It sounds like it is going to be a great show! It is on HBO but if you do not have HBO, there are many other ways to watch the concert. Check your local listings. Many on line sites are hosting the concert. You can search 12-12-12 Concert for Sandy Relief and should get numerous results. There are other TV channels airing the concert besides HBO. You should have no trouble finding some way to watch the concert.

I was watching TV and I heard about it. It seems to me that everyone that is something in pop music will be there. I am sure many of us will see it. See you there
