More on the Jonathan Lee Horne Memorial Music Fund here:
https://churchofnoise.org/collections/jonathan-lee-horne-memorial-music-fund

As an avid musician and a lover and collector of guitars, the fund honors Jonathan's memory by spreading music to the future generations of his communities. 100% of the donations to the Jonathan Lee Horne Memorial Music Fund are used to purchase guitars and other musical gear for young and aspiring musicians in the three Indiana cities Jonathan called home: Indianapolis, Bloomington, and Kokomo.

For the first round of instruments, the fund created an edition of 30 short-neck, yellow, Epiphone Les Pauls – as this was the one inexpensive entry-level guitar that Jonathan actually owned and enjoyed playing. This particular guitar was signed by one of Jonathan's favorite bands: The Melvins.

100% of the funds from the auction will go back to the JLH Memorial Music Fund, and will be used to continue to buy gear for young musicians in need of equipment. Thank you for your support and for keeping Jonathan's memory alive.

*NOTE* we took this photo before the custom headstock plates were numbered. But this will be number 1 out of 30.

"For Immediate Release:

Huge apologies for two messages about this project within 24 hours, but we just got the biggest confirmation of the entire project and couldn't sit on the news:

 
THE MELVINS to join Pallbearer, ASG, Ruby the Hatchet, Greenleaf and more on Pink Floyd tribute project 'The Wall [Redux]'

Friday March 3, 2017 in the late afternoon, iconic proto-stoner rock legends THE MELVINS confirmed that they would participate in Magnetic Eye Records' The Wall [Redux] Pink Floyd tribute project with less than 50 hours left in the Kickstarter campaign.

The project had already gained serious momentum in the final week of its crowdfunding campaign with the confirmation of several higher-profile artists signing on to bring their distinctive voices to the project.  But the label had no reason to expect an addition of this magnitude at the eleventh hour.

In the past week alone, numerous bands have joined and confirmed their songs, including ASG taking on "Mother," Mars Red Sky tackling "Comfortably Numb," Pallbearer lending its grim vibe to "Run Like Hell," Ruby the Hatchet reinventing "Pigs" (for the "Best of Pink Floyd" companion LP), and Solace performing "In the Flesh."  The increase in bigger artist commitments also prompted Magnetic Eye to add an exclusive "Best of Pink Floyd" companion LP to the project that will feature additional songs from Floyd's catalog. 

Artists confirmed to appear on the project include:

- ASG
- Domkraft
- Ironweed
- Ghastly Sound
- Greenleaf
- Low Flying Hawks (featuring Dale Crover of THE MELVINS)
- Mars Red Sky
- Mos Generator
- Mammoth Weed Wizard Bastard
- Pallbearer
- Ruby the Hatchet
- Sergeant Thunderhoof
- The Slim Kings (featuring drummer Liberty DeVitto of Billy Joel, Stevie Nicks, and Rick Wakeman fame)
- Solace
- Summoner
- The Ultra Electric Mega Galactic (featuring Ed Mundell, formerly of The Atomic Bitchwax / Monster Magnet)
- The Melvins
- WhiteNails
- Worshipper
- Yawning Man
- Year of the Cobra
With barely two days left in the pre-order campaign, Magnetic Eye has already achieved its initial goal, which means the project will indeed move forward. 

However, those interested in reserving copies of the first limited vinyl edition have just a few short hours left to head over to the Kickstarter and do so at:
