[kj] Geordies Guitar

The way I am reading into this is as follows (I may be wrong, but I
feel its a good assumption) :

The whole Geordie led Pledge Music project was designed to raise funds
for the British Heart Foundation....a nice tribute to Raven.

I am assuming this sale (considering at the end it further mentions
Raven) could possibly a further fund raiser on a well used guitar that
Geordie no longer uses.

It is odd however (or possibly not knowing they can't organise a piss
up in a brewery) there has not been any notification of this auction
to gain interest.

I certainly don't think its going to be the end of the band or a Porl
(Pearl) Thompson of The Cure scenario whereby later this month he/she
is auctioning off all of his/her Cure memorabilia, and will no longer
be Robert Smith's "brother" in law.
