Blondie Drummer Clem Burke Auctions Music Memorabilia For MS Society

Blondie's legendary drummer Clem Burke has signed and donated a snare head, pair of sticks and gig flyers to raise funds for the UK's MS Society.

The auction, being held on eBay, will end on 26 March. The funds will go to UK charity MS Society (Multiple Sclerosis Society) - whom fund research, give grants, campaign for change, provide information and support, invest in MS specialists and lend a listening ear to those who need it.

The description of Clem's donated items reads, "Calling all Blondie and music fans alike. This is an auction to raise fund for the MS Society in the UK. I have a used hand signed snare head, a signed pair of sticks and gig flyers signed by the drummer with probably the most iconic band of our time - Clem Burke from Blondie. He has kindly donated these items to auction off  to raise funds for the MS Society." Update: £156 was raised for the MS Society.
