Radiohead does big things for Haiti at small venue

LOS ANGELES — Radiohead gave a special concert for Haiti earthquake relief in Los Angeles and raised more than $500,000.

The band performed for more than two hours Sunday at the Henry Fonda Theatre. The benefit show drew a star-studded crowd that included Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel, Charlize Theron, Anna Paquin and Daniel Craig.

Attendees bid online for tickets, with proceeds going to Oxfam International, a group that works with developing countries. Prices went as high as $4,000 for a pair of tickets to attend the intimate show.
