Tweet Beat: Musicians Take On Hurricane Sandy

This week the East Coast suffered while in the path of Hurricane Sandy. Thousands were hit with powerful winds and rain and many musicians found themselves in the middle of the storm as well. Here’s a Twitter breakdown from some artists who suffered through Hurricane Sandy and others who sent well wishes.

It’s no secret that Lady Gaga is a New Yorker and she took to Twitter to express her frustrations with the hurricane and wishes to be “in the rain” with her family and friends.

i know its gonna be ok, but that water flooding downtown while my friends are sitting in the dark is making me sad. i love you new york.
