The Prize

This auction is for a guitar signed by Billie Joe Armstrong, Tre Cool and Mike Dirnt, the three main and longest playing members of the American punk rock band, Green Day.

Green Day were formed in 1986 by vocalist/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong and bassist Mike Dirnt. For much of the group's career, the band has been a trio with drummer Tré Cool, who replaced the former drummer in 1990. They are widely credited for reviving popular interest in punk rock, especially due to the hugely successful albums 'Dookie' and 'American Idiot'.

The guitar is a black Johnny Brook stratocaster style electric guitar with a green guitar plate. The band members have signed the guitar on the guitar plate.

This is an incredible opportunity to own a guitar signed by a true music legend.

The Cause

The Tim Parry Johnathan Ball Foundation for Peace is a charity that campaigns only for one thing ... Peace.

That is to say that conflict is inevitable, but using violence is not. The Foundation for Peace was founded by the parents of 12-year old Tim Parry and supported by the parents of three year old Johnathan Ball. Tim and Johnathan were tragically killed as a direct result of the IRA’s bombing of Warrington in March 1993. The Foundation has developed over a further 14 years and is independent and funded as a charity.

They do not take sides, they are not aligned to any conflict, they are not faith or political based and they do not pursue causes such as justice or truth. There is no other organisation that takes such a stance.

The Foundation works nationally to support those affected by terrorism and conflict. With over 20 years of experience, they believe that addressing the causes of violence before, during and after conflict situations is the most effective way possible to promote peace. Their projects and programmes work within three main areas; prevention, resolution and response.
