The Rolling Stones have just been added to the 12-12-12: The Concert For Sandy Relief show

A big show just got bigger as the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World have said they will play at Wednesday's 12-12-12: The Concert For Sandy Relief at MSG. The big show already had commitments from Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band, Paul McCartney, The Who, Eric Clapton, Roger Waters, and Billy Joel. If you follow this here link to Gothamist whur we'un found this musical news nugget you'll see something cool Mick and Keef are up to this week in town.

Two things; It's a bad idea to go on after The Who as we learned at the Concert for New York City after 9/11 and two, Johnny will use any mention of the Rolling Stones to play a video.

Never before have we seen Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi performing at the same event

But Friday night in a benefit concert for the victims of Hurricane Sandy the two New Jersey icons will perform. The special will air Friday at 8 pm on NBC, NBC.com, USA Network, SyFy, MSNBC, CNBC, Bravo, E!, Style Network, G4 and more. It will also be live-streamed on NBC.com. The show is in association with the American Red Cross and Billy Joel, Christina Aguilera, and Sting will also perform.

Here's hoping a few more performers will lend their names to this show and help get the help to where we need it most. To donate, visit RedCross.org, call 1-800-RED-CROSS or text the word REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with BILLY JOEL!

It's a good theme tonight on Good Friday, with all the songs having the word "good" in the title. We'll kick it off with probably one of the first song titles that popped into your head when you heard the magic word was good, Billy Joel with 'Only the Good Die Young'
