AARP
has a New Music service called Jukebox
By Michael Husser
AARP has a new free music service that provides a variety
of music you can tailor to your own tastes. The service
is called "AARP JukeBoxî and is powered by Pandora.
The web address is www.aarp.org/fun/music
Launched in October 2007, the service is available to
anyone. I've set up my own channel for blues and classical
music and the service works great. Once you set up the
channel, it will continue to play music in the genre
selected.

Music Maker Relief Foundation
Here is an important music organization that I have discovered. As a musician myself, I believe the efforts of this group are needed today more than ever. They also have some unique ways to raise funds. Please donate if you are able.

The Music Maker relief Foundation was created in order to help traditional musicians in need rise above poverty and enrich our nation's culture. Music Maker helps with life's basics - food, medicine, housing and transportation. We advance the careers of recipient artists by supplying instruments, CDs, booking services and tour support.
Buddy, can you spare a guitar?
Here's an opportunity to help the Music Maker Relief Foundation, gain some space in the closet and even earn a tax credit, all at the same time. Music Maker Relief Foundation is teaming up with Auction Now an Ebay drop off store in Durham, to create what we hope is a successful fundraiser that doesn't ask for money.
Do you have some musical instruments you'd be willing to contribute? If so, contact Auction Now! at (919) 416-1400
Or maybe you want to keep your old guitar, but have Aunt Mildred's doll collection you'd like to serve a good purpose. Or old toys, old tools, old coins, electronics, or anything else that might sell well on Ebay, which is almost everything. Auction Now! will accept your donation on our behalf, auction the item, deliver a check to Music Maker, and the paper work for the tax benefit to you. We're delighted by this opportunity and hope you will participate!
Call Auction Now! (919) 416-1400 or email them - auctionnow@verizon.net
