U2 and Green Day Hook Up

U2 and Green Day are set to record a single to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

They'll record a cover of a 70s punk tune called The Saints Are Coming, originally sung by a Brit group called The Skids.

The money will go to the Music Rising Charity which was set up by U2 strummer The Edge last year in the wake of the disaster to fund the replacement of lost and destroyed musical instruments.
