NBC will air a concert featuring singers Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi and Christina Aguilera on Friday to benefit victims of monster storm Sandy, which devastated parts of the U.S. Northeast with flooding and winds this week.
The special will be broadcast on the networks of NBC Universal, and money collected from the program will be donated to the American Red Cross relief efforts, NBC said on its website.
The benefit concert, titled "Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together," will be hosted by Today show anchor Matt Lauer, the TV network said. Along with Springsteen, whose songs often center on his upbringing on the New Jersey shore, most of the performers are from areas hard-hit by the storm.

LOL. I’ve used the classic “Indian Head” test pattern as a desktop background before. At the office, only the old folks like me recognized it.
My thoughts also, and I don’t recall any concerts when I’ve been stacking sand bags along the Mississippi or using a chain saw to clear tornado damage here in flyover country.
The special will air Friday at 8 p.m. ET on NBC, USA Network, SyFy, MSNBC, CNBC, Bravo, E!, Style Network, G4 and more. It will also be live streamed on NBC.com.
I will get the DVD with all the extra goodies...as a used one, to avoid the money going to any liberal causes.
