I am so late in updating but this Mama is super slow to post but still doing, just not as fast as she would like! Please check below for links to some new musicians we have helped and look for their upcoming CDs, LPs T-shirts and more, in the future. If you know them and love them already, though most are up and coming, please send us a message with your interest as we will be posting most of the goodies at some point. Most is limited editions, signed and or premium items that won't be available once their funding project is over so just like Joshua, we will continue to support more and more until our funds run out. I will be adding links below so we can tag the artists as well to spread the word;o) Thanks for all that have sent money, bought his old and new treasures already. This keeps our sweet boy's memories and spirit gifting alive and hoping for years to come!

Even when things are quiet, we are behind the scenes looking for funding opportunities that fit in Joshua’s far reaching gifting parameters. We have now supported a good deal of artists on different venues!

If you know an artist, group, animal related cause that we may be able to help, have them like our page and send us a message, link to a project or link to whatever they are seeking help with:)

Decisions, decisions! In effort to move through every item, one item at a time, posting pictures, bundling items and making choices is REALLY time consuming. There is a commitment to do this but deciding a faster way to promote items is listing them elsewhere and then sharing the post vs posting to this page. The choice then is listing items elsewhere and then trying to make sure all items are sold and delisted elsewhere or canceled, paid, awaiting payment or messaged, to pick up or packaging and mailing. All this to say it is extremely heartwarming for all the people who have reached out and want Joshua's "stuff" and the memories they may hold or a chance to carry his legacy by discovering his music and how they may be connected through the love of music. I am sharing this list in hopes that it will be a faster way to post items that you can see to attain items for yourself via buying there or contacting me directly an I will work things out. All sale venues including eBay, Amazon, Discogs and other marketplaces encourage you to share the items on social media but have expectations of purchases made on their site. That all means every sales and payment service get a portion of the sale 10-15% PLUS a portion of the shipping and that means lots of middle men. Just stating facts. Message us if interested in ANYTHING you see that you would love to offer a donation for. If you choose to go through the venue, that is fine. If you offer a donation, we will also make sure there are bonuses swag in the bag;o) Just say'n!

Check out our shop on Discogs, the biggest online music marketplace in the world, and add some gems to your collection!

Signed cds! Message if interested. Suggested donation amounts in pic or make one up. Bonus cds always included.

McMenamin’s goodies. T-shirts and lunch boxes. More to come but here are a few. Sizes notes but may have other sizes available as there are a few duplicates. Some new some worn, it is hard to tell on a lot of Joshua’s shirts. If you are familiar with this local Oregon amazing string of hotel/restaurant/venue , thier merchandise is very unique as is their locations. Joshua was a Cosmic Tripster (if you know, you know!) and has been to every one of them and fulfilled top level so lots of cool stuff to come of many of the treasures that he acquired that need a new home. The two lunchboxes are shown with a dent or two, likely can be popped out but we will let the new owner do that. A few bonus items from McMenamin inside each.

New addition to the family!!

Meet Joshua, a.k.a Josh - a short-scale piece of low-end magic from . This bass is the Ibanez EHB1000S.

You’d think this is a great metal bass from the look of it, but the tone is warm and perfect for rocking new bass lines and smooth grooves. Kind of like me, metal on the outside, smooth on the inside. 💋💕⚡️

Named in memory of the late Joshua Smelser who loved my music, other artist’s music, animals and was just a kind, gentle soul. We miss him immensely.

I believe art, music and writing is here to comfort us, to inspire us and to give us ways to come together to combat all that is unjust and brutally painful in our world. So - Josh and I will be doing just that. You’ll be seeing and hearing a lot from us over the next few months!

Thank you to and Tyler at Ibanez for bringing this new beauty home to me at lightning speed. Ibanez Guitars

Love to all. 🏳️‍🌈💕🏳️‍🌈

Nurtured By Nature is one of Joshua's favorite places. We are sponsoring a match gift of 50% for a few lucky peeps for scheduling a swim with the otters encounter for anyone that will help us help them while we can! We want to do a few scholarships as well through Make A Wish or other nonprofits to work with us, if you know of someone who is deserving of this, just message us to help out and we can see what we can do! Share our page and that helps us raise more money to help them and all the other wonderful charities that he sponsored. Keep checking back and hopeful there is a lot more listed here and on ebay soon! Of course we much rather deal with you directly😉
