Next on eBay: Sting’s bass, Andy’s Fender Telecaster, Stewart’s drums

In the run-up to WNET/WLIW’s Madison Square Garden benefit concert Aug. 7 — the last performance of the reunion tour of The Police — four donors have bid a total of $39,700 on eBay for packages of front-row seats and other special goodies involving the band and their opening act, the B-52s. Stay tuned on eBay for Wave 2 of the auction, Aug. 4-14, which will dispose of autographed instruments from The Police. Meanwhile, tickets are selling for $125 and up, and seating is being expanded to include seats behind the stage. More on the stations’ Public Television Rocks campaign in Current, July 28.
