Wildy's World Auctions (American Cancer Society)

Greetings fellow travelers!

Yes, there are more reviews coming.  I’ve been a bit slow on that front of late asI have been putting much of my spare time into fundraising for the AmericanCancer Society’s Relay for Life!  I haveabout 60 or so reviews in the can, most of them handwritten; all just waitingfor me to find time to type them out.

Yes.

But right now Wildy’s World is engaged in an excitingproject!  We reached out over the pastcouple of months to the artists we’ve worked with over the past several years, andmany have been gracious enough to offer their time and talent for song auctionson eBay (seller ID wildysworld).  Theidea is simple:  The highest bidder fromthe auction gets to fill out a short survey telling the artist what they wouldlike their song to be about.  The artistthen takes that information and interprets it how they will.  The winner will then receive a recording ofthe song via email. 
The recording is expected to be a demo – clean but notnecessarily the finished product you might hear on an album.  Some artists are going further than thisbased on the time and resources available to them.

Even some of the artists who do not have time to engage inthe songwriting project are contributing. One artist is donating a cover song – winner gets to pick the song, anysong, and the artist will interpret it. Still others have donated or promised to donate signed items, rare CDs,artwork, etc.  I’ve even added a fewsigned items I’ve personally received over the past four or so years to themix.

As of this morning there are seven auctions live on eBay,and I would highly encourage you to check them out!  All proceeds will be donated to the AmericanCancer Society through my Relay For Life Team, the Cave Crashers.  And even if you don’t want to participate inthe auction, but want to make a donation on my behalf, you can do so through mypersonal Relay for Life page here.
