UPDATE: The auction ends this evening (UK time) at 5.32pm. Thanks so much for all the bids. We're all amazed by your generosity.
Hello Everyone,
I'm very excited to announce that I am auctioning off the gold jacket I wore for Keane's UK Arena tour in Jan/Feb 2009. All proceeds will be going direct to Rwanda Aid, a registered charity that my Dad has run for the last few years. It is helping out people in one of the poorest parts of the world, a place that has been hit by war, famine, mass genocide, earthquakes and the spread of AIDS. Every penny raised goes direct to the cause.
The jacket is a one-off by Christian Dior... so I hope (even in these difficult times) you can dig deep into your pockets! I'll also chuck in a couple of VIP tickets to a Keane gig of your choice, so that I can hand it over, do some photos and say thank you for the massive donation(!). Or, if you can't make it to a Keane show, we'll post it.

If you want more information on the great work that Rwanda Aid does, take a look at www.rwanda-aid.org. You can also donate directly to the charity at www.justgiving.com/rwandaaid.
Thanks very much!
Tom
