4 Guitars and a signed set list for charity, Brian May, Mark Knopfler, AC/DC and UK stars of the 70's / 80's!

I’d like to tell you guys about a Charity Auction that I am assisting with and some cool lots that I thought may interest some of you.  All proceeds of the Auction go directly to UK Charity Action Against Cancer.

The Auction is part of CatFest ’19.

https://www.catfestevent.com/

Why CatFest?

It has nothing to do with Cats!

Catfest is an annual family-friendly, all-inclusive mini-music festival raising money for Action Against Cancer. The money raised funds crucial research, giving cancer sufferers hope and saving lives.

It is named for Julian’s wife Caterina and started as a celebration of Cat’s indefatigable battle with cancer.

Over the last 3 years the event has raised £111,711 all going to Action Against Cancer.

This year’s event has been sold out for months.

However, one of the most important fund-raising successes CatFest achieves is its’ charity auction.

This year as well as many more unusual, unique lots we have four special guitars and a signerd AC/DC Set List which we believe deserve a larger audience than the 400 or so attendees.

We would love you to bid on these on eBay where they will be listed as a Special Charity Auction.

The Special Auctions will end between 21:30 (BST) 4:30 pm (EDT) and 21:45 (BST) 4:45 pm (EDT) on Saturday 13th July. This is to coincide with the live Auction at the festival.

On 4th June 2016 AC/DC performed the first ever concert at the Olympic Stadium in London since its redevelopment following the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

 

 

This show, as one of the 22 last shows of this tour, was rescheduled as Brian Johnson was ordered to stop touring immediately for medical reasons in March 2016.

 

AC-DC took to the road to complete the tour with Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses appearing in Johnson's place marking the first time that AC/DC has featured a lead vocalist other than Brian Johnson since they concluded the Highway to Hell Tour on 27 January 1980.

 

 

The Set List is signed by:

Angus Young - Lead Guitar

Axl Rose - lead vocals

Cliff Williams - Bass

Stevie Young - Rhythm Guitar

Chris Slade - Drums

Thanks to this forum who approved my reasons for joining (made clear in my application) I hope this info is interesting!

 

With best regards,

Kevin and Julian
