Paul for Music Saves Lives Auction
The Music Saves Lives /Gibson Guitar
Auction is set to feature a one of a kind 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio with
custom graphics and signature by Guns N’ Roses guitarist DJ Ashba. Monster Energy and Ashba donated the guitar to Music
Saves Lives to raise funds for life saving causes that help increase the
nation’s safe Blood Supply and Marrow Registry. Kevin Lyman, founder of the Vans
Warped Tour, Taste of Chaos, Country Throwdown and Mayhem Festival, started the
foundation ‘Unite the United’, where proceeds from eBay auctions benefit
selected nonprofits. Music Saves
Lives has been selected for this unique eBay fundraising.
Darren
Jay Ashba (born November 10, 1972 in Monticello, Indiana) is

in Sixx:A.M. and Guns N' Roses, and is also known for his work
with hard rock bands BulletBoys, and Beautiful Creatures. Ashba has worked with
various artists including Mötley Crüe, Drowning Pool, Marion
Raven, Aimee Allen and Neil Diamond.
The summer of 2010 is the fifth summer Music Saves
Lives has been supported by the Vans Warped Tour to educate and encourage blood
donation. This program has
generated over 100,000 blood donations this summer and over 1 million in the
past 5 years and it is the largest youth blood donation program in US history.

marrow registry and reaching out by sharing facts, educating and empowering
