Legendary rock band The Rolling Stones have joined the line-up for a fundraising concert in New York for victims of Hurricane Sandy. The Stones will take to the stage for the show, called "12-12-12 The Concert," with previously announced stars Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, and Billy Joel among others. Other acts scheduled to perform include The Who and Bon Jovi. The concert will be streamed live online, on TV and on digital billboards in New York's Times Square, and in Paris and London. Donations raised from the one-night event will go to the Robin Hood Relief Fund, which provides money and materials to groups helping people hardest hit by the storm.
