This past Wednesday, December 12, many of Rock N' Roll's finest stars took over New York
City's Madison Square Garden for "12.12.12" the Concert For Sandy
Relief. The live music event helped provide assistance to the millions
of people throughout the tri-state area who have been affected by
Hurricane Sandy.
Towards the end of the event, which
finalized around 1 AM Eastern Time, THE BEATLES' legend Paul McCartney
was joined by the surviving members of NIRVANA - Dave Grohl and Krist
Novoselic - and Pat Smears from the FOO FIGHTERS. The group performed
"Cut Me Some Slack", a song that will be available to purchase as part
of a live compilation album of songs from the evening. It will also be
included on the soundtrack of Grohl's NEW movie, "Sound City Movie" (Watch the trailer HERE).
According to The Pulse Of Radio, Courtney Love (Kurt Cobain's widow), went on Facebook even before the event and wrote that she was "not amused" by McCartney's involvement, adding, "Look, if John [Lennon] were alive it would be cool."
After the performance, she returned online to post a series of trademark incoherent comments. For example: "if they don't do songs they didn't write (Nirvana songs they don't own) i don't care."
The famously controversial Love, also bashed Krist Novoselic's bass playing. Love responsed to a comment from a Facebook user named Scott, who really enjoyed the performance. Love replied, "Scott really? I will repeat, with Krist's bass playing? Lets be clear hes not exactly known for its brilliance." Watch video of this historic performance HERE!

The HORNS UP ROCKS Top 12 Records Of 2012!
There is no doubt in our minds that 2012 was a great year for OUR music, especially when it comes to NEW musical releases. In times in which EVERY single band is struggling in one form or another due to the decline of the music industry, the need for bands to release top notch quality music is more prevalent than ever before. Not only are the fans expecting a higher quality product, but they are also very distracted by today's modern technology. In other words, bands have very little time to catch the attention of their listeners.
