HOT ROCKS: Still can’t get enough of the Rolling Stones? After a new album, a splashy tour and a cable-TV extravaganza, what marketing scheme could possibly be next? How about a video biography, with highlights (and rare archival footage) from the band’s 25-year career? Titled “25 x 5: The Continuing Adventures of the Rolling Stones,” the video bio will include original Stones performances from “Shindig” and “The Ed Sullivan Show” as well as rare excerpts from “Rock and Roll Circus” and “(expletive) Blues.” Created by “Saturday Night Live’s” Lorne Michaels and produced by Andrew Solt, the project is due Feb. 13, priced at $19.98. . . . The Go-Go’s are getting together for a one-time-only reunion, slated for March 28 at the Universal Amphitheatre. Proceeds from the benefit concert will go to the Environmental Ballot Initiative, a proposition scheduled to appear on the California ballot in November. . . . And now for the Dumbest Name Change of the Week. After being threatened with a law suit by the band Hurricane, Atlantic Records’ hard-rock outfit, Hurricane Alice, has changed its name to Hericane Alice. The group’s new album, “Tear Down the Walls,” was just released.
