Stones Added to Sandy Relief Concert Line-up

11 Dec 2012

The Rolling Stones will be taking part in the Concert for Sandy Relief tomorrow, 12th December. Mick Jagger agreed to perform after John Sykes and Harvey Weinstein, two producers from the charity fundraiser, visited the band to make a personal appeal.

As well as sharing the stage with performers such as Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney and Roger Waters tomorrow, the Stones will be joined by special guests on the last dates of their '50 and Counting' tour. Mary J Blige will be singing once more on Thursday 13th, and guests Bruce Springsteen, Lady Gaga and The Black Keys will play alongside the Stones at the final show.

'We're excited these extraordinary artists have agreed to help celebrate our 50th anniversary as we share the night live with our fans all over the world.' - The Rolling Stones
