Concert To Mark Rock Hall's Jubilee

(AP)  Bruce Springsteen, Aretha Franklin, U2 and Stevie Wonder are among the music legends who will celebrate 25 years of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and they plan to sing much more than "Happy Birthday."

Those inductees, plus Eric Clapton, Metallica and more, will perform at two concerts at New York's Madison Square Garden in October to mark the rock hall's silver anniversary.

A statement from the rock hall says there will be different lineups for the Oct. 29 and Oct. 30 shows. Proceeds will be used for a permanent endowment.

All of the acts scheduled to perform including Simon & Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Friends are members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I still don't understand why this concert will be at the Garden and not in Cleveland,where the Rock Hall is.
