Stones to rock Clinton birthday bash

Veteran rockers The Rolling Stones will perform a private concert for Bill Clinton to mark the former US President's 60th birthday.

Clinton turns 60 on August 19 but has months of birthday celebrations lined up across the world, culminating in the Brown Sugar hitmakers' show at the Beacon Theater in New York City.

The tribute show is being organised by Hollywood producer Steve Bing and will be filmed by seven-time Oscar-nominated director Martin Scorsese, reports the New York Post.
