Chris and I have donated our Roland JD800 keyboard to be auctioned for Comic Relief. The keyboard (pictured here) was played by Chris throughout the Release tour in 2002 and has some unique PSB sounds stored in its memory. To go with this, Parlophone have kindly given a complete set on CD of the entire PSB back catalogue from “Please” to “The Most Incredible Thing”. Go to the link below if you’d like to bid in this amazing auction. All proceeds go to Comic Relief. Neil x
