I always wish they would actually tell you how much is getting donated.

I know of Paul Weller, and could recognise him before I saw those pictures, but I don't really know his music. Not enough to say I like/dislike it. Therefore I can't make a decision on whether I like that amp based on his name, which is quite a good thing, I'm not a fan on stuff with peoples names on it. I think the amp looks quite nice, not sure about it ALL being white, and the RAF/Target/Mod logo thing could be a bit more subtle, i can imagine people hating that. But overall I quite like it.

Ah, the more I look at it the more I hate the Target on the front.

I will begrudgingly admit that The Jam live was one of the best gigs I've ever been to. But all his politicking at the time was seriously annoying; also hearing the Style Council makes me feel physically sick.

Yeah I hate it when bands care about stuff, it's a real nightmare.

Why all the Weller hate?

That's Entertainment

And from the Style Council "You're The Best Thing" is a fucking tune, also "Walls Come Tumbling Down"

And solo output:

You Do Something To Me
Peacock Suit
From The Floorboards Up
Come On/Let's Go

Ah, I do know quite a few of those. Just couldn't put the song to the artist.
Also, 'Thats Entertainment' .. didn't Morrissey cover that? I seem to have it in as a Morrissey song in my head.

I thought it still had the cover on in all the photos, like they were teasers or something. Ugly amp, musical luddite, but a good cause.

I secretly quite like his hair and his commitment to tailoring, though.
