US-WEATHER-STORM-SANDY-MUSIC-LED ZEPPELIN-FILES
(FILES) Photo dated September 21, 2012 shows British rock band Led Zeppelin, (L-R) John Paul Jones, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, posing at a press conference to announce the release of a video recording of their one-off 2007 concert in London. Rock music royalty including the Rolling Stones joined last years charity show for victims of superstorm Sandy, but even Bill Clinton couldn't convince Led Zeppelin to play. Organizers tried to get the iconic band to play the so-called "12-12-12" concert at New York's Madison Square Garden in December, to join a line-up also including Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, The Who and Eric Clapton. The Robin Hood Foundation put the show together in only a few weeks, raising $50 million to help victims of the October 29 hurricane-strength storm which killed about 120 people. "There were two bands that we were trying desperately to recruit, one was Rolling Stones, the other was Led Zeppelin," the group's executive director David Saltzman explained on CBS news show "60 Minutes," aired on May 5, 2013.
