members of Nirvana 12 Wednesday December. The Beatles musician is preparing to
perform at the 12.12.12 Hurricane Sandy benefit concert at Madison Square
Garden in New York City. Paul, former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl, who is now a
member of the Foo Fighters, and bassist Krist Novoselic, will grace the stage
together. This will be the first time Dave and Krist have played together in
over 20 years following the death of Kurt Cobain. Paul is elated about the
historic event. '[I phoned Dave and he invited me to come over and] jam with
some mates,' Paul told British newspaper The Sun. 'I didn't really know who
they were. They are saying how good it is to be back together. I said 'Whoa?
You guys haven't played together for all that time? 'And somebody whispered to
me 'That's Nirvana. You're Kurt.' I couldn't believe it.' Paul, Dave and Krist
will be sharing the stage with Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel,
Alicia Keys, Kanye West and The Rolling Stones. In South Africa, fans can watch
