Fuel For Humanity has guitar lessons with Television's Richard ...
I got an email from Jerid O'Connell, the original drummer from the New York band the Rousers, about an auction for charity online.
Among the items for auction (which includes sports memorabilia, designer goods and bits of luxury) are some nice bits of musical history, most notably a 1981 7" from the Rousers (produced by Wayne Kramer of the MC5 ) and two guitar lessons with punk legend Richard Lloyd of Television.
All of the proceeds go to benefit Fuel for Humanity, a nonprofit corporation that provides opportunities for young people through technology and education. Currently, Fuel for Humanity maintains a classroom in Nicaragua that offers computer studies and digital photography classes, and funds college scholarships for its graduates. They want to continue to expand and help those in need, and this auction will help fund these efforts.
