Hurricane Sandy effected the entire Tri-state area around New York City, leaving millions without power and displaced from their homes. The storm, which touched down around Halloween, is still at the forefront of our minds.

Pop stars did their part and performed at the largely classic rock-leaning 12-12-12 concert event that took place at New York City's Madison Square Garden on Dec. 12. Kanye West and Alicia Keys were on hand to lend their talents for good, as was Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.
