Rock Memorabilia being auctioned for Lucky Brands Foundation!!

Been a busy day for blogging- and having picked up the New Rolling Stone 1000th issue special, I find that Rolling Stone and Lucky Brand Jeans are teaming up to bring the world a Music Memorabilia Auction - Live viewings of one-of-a- kind rock memorabilia can be viewed at Bloomingdales, 3rd Ave, NYC (what are west coast folks chopped liver?) and bidding will be on eBay from May 17- May 29th. All proceeds will benefit The Lucky Brands Foundation.
