The Raygunettes - People Doing Cool Things They Don't Have To Do

Well, you know how much I love RayGun Relics' guitars, but it seems that such guitar battering and beautificational talent runs large in the family as his daughters, we'll call them The Raygunettes, have done a grand job on their own Kookylele and decided to auction it on a well known rip-off of an auction site for the charity Mind.

How cool is that?

The hope is that this will just be the lighting of the fuse, and that whoever is lucky enough to win it, will have a foto taken with the little beauty that can be displayed with pride on the 'Instruments of change' Facebook group, before putting it back up for auction (with Mind again getting the booty) so that somebody else can take a turn.

The Kookylele, has sequins, a nitro finish and comes in it's own treasure chest along with a map. The Raygunettes are hoping that each winner will add a little something else to the chest and pass it along.

The Ebay auction is HERE and I am the leading bidder so far, and you wouldn't want to lose out to me now would you?

How embarrassing would that be?

Everybody would point at you and snigger and snikker behind their hands.

So you know what you must do.

I'll say no more.

The Raygunettes - cool people doing cool things they don't have to do...doesn't get much better than that.

And I wouldn't normally ask  this, being the shy and retiring type of chap that I am, but if you happen to have friends, family, vague acquaintances or even people you don't particularly like but could do with some sequins in their miserable lives, why not point them at the auction, and generally spread the word. Ask them to spread the word too. Wouldn't it be brilliantly cool if this little Uke went around the world, raising money at every step? So even if you can't make a bid, spread the word, it costs you nothing....

La la laaaa
