Two signed Roger
albums up for auction!
Queen fan Craig Jenkinson 'found' both Fun In Space and Strange Frontier
when they were 'donated' to his local Cancer Research charity shop
along with a box of other assorted albums. He knew they were worth
more than the 50p price tag they MIGHT have been given in the shop,
and so rescued them! He sent them to me, and I had Roger sign them
both very recently (see pic), and we would now like to sell them to
the highest bidder, and donate all the proceeds back to that Cancer
Research shop. They are in good condition, the sleeve on Strange Frontier
is a little worn, but the records themselves look as though they were
not played a huge amount! Opening bid is £25 EACH and you can
bid on both at the same time or just one, simply send your highest
bids HERE with your name and
membership number. Please state if you are bidding on one or both.
Feel free to send a 'maximum bid' and I will inform you if it is bettered.
You have until Thursday October 11th to get your bids in! Highest
bidder at midday on that day will get the goodies!(By Jacky) |

Queen duo to
play at Mandela gig
Queen stars Brian May and Roger Taylor have signed up to perform at
a concert in London next year to mark Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday.
The charity concert is being held to raise awareness of Mandela's
46664 HIV Aids campaign, set up to help those "on the frontline
to fight HIV". May and Taylor helped found the 46664 campaign
in 2003, alongside fellow music stars Dave Stewart and Bono. The former
President of South Africa will attend the concert on 27 June. A worldwide
music-led campaign, 46664 takes its name from the prison number Mandela
was assigned during his 18-year-sentence on Robben Island in South
Africa. Bono and Beyonce Knowles headlined the first concert in South
Africa in November 2003. Spain and Norway have also played host to
concerts, in addition to a second gig held in South Africa in 2005.
In January of the same year, Mandela lost his son to Aids. (source;
