The auction features some of the world's most sought after autographed guitars, posters and memorabilia.

"We plan to expand on the tremendous success we had last year. Millions of people heard the message on the radio and online leading up to the Earth Day event."

The radio auctions will be live on the air, all day on Earth Day, Friday, April 22nd, 2005 and promoted by the radio station's on-air personalities. A special 800 number and a web page for each autographed guitar will make the auction accessible to as many people as possible.
