Bill Clinton is planning to help the Rolling Stones raise awareness about global warming.

According to organisers, Clinton is scheduled to appear at a free Stones concert at Los Angeles' Staples Centre on Thursday.

The ex-president, who sported sunglasses and played his sax on The Arsenio Hall Show during a 1992 campaign appearance, is not expected to perform with the band.

Instead, he'll make a speech from the stage about the importance of fighting global warming, according to the Natural Resources Defence Council - the nonprofit group staging the gig.

A spokesman for NRDC said: "The show was conceived as a way to put "a worldwide spotlight on global warming and the opportunities that exist right now to start fixing the problem."

About 12,000 fans won tickets to the show in an internet draw last month, while others received passes through nationwide radio station giveaways.

The band is currently completing the North American stretch of its Licks World Tour and will launch the international leg later this month starting in Australia.

If anyone goes there, let us know how much booing goes on. Or start a lively round of booing yourself. The media is sure to engineer it out of any footage they show.

A lying fake promoting a leftist fake cause that only people who did not quit major drug usage and most of hollywood believe.

How did I see this put on another thread: President Bush and Colin Powell are on the world's stage, and this loser is on the rock and roll stage. Talking about global warming of all things. Slick in the balance.

Bill Clinton is planning to help the Rolling Stones raise awareness about global warming.

They could do much about limiting global warming by simply shutting their fat mouths.

Wonder if the Stones will develop a sudden "fear of flying" afterward?
