I'M YER GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN

And so another day trundles on. The bad weather seems to have abated, and the weather forecast website says that it will be fine for the next fortnight, but - to be quite honest - I will believe it when I see it..

We start off with news about a live interview featuring the ever groovy Michael Des Barres, who will be on Blogtalk Radio live tonight at 11:00PM UK time. Be there or be square...

At the risk of sounding more like a tedious old hippy than I already do, I like to see the foreign reviews of Gonzo artists, like this Portuguese one of Erik Norlander. It shows that Rock Music truly is international in scope and is one of those few things that brings people of different nations, creeds and colours together

I have just been sent a pdf of an eminently cool little rock and roll newsletter called Keep Rockin'. As it features our very own Merrell Fankhauser I have a perfect excuse to give it a plug on today's Gonzo Daily.

Jon Anderson's recent US Tour really appears to have been a smash. I wish I had been there to see it, but the bits I have seen on YouTube make me really look forward to the next batch of UK dates..

Chris Thompson really is a massively talented dude. His recent CD/DVD live set has been on heavy rotation (as I believe that radio shows call it) on the Gonzo Daily hifi, and we look forward to seeing him next time he tours.

It was only the other day that I found out quite how many film scored Mimi Page has composed. According to brief thingumy on her Facebook page it is the thing that she enjoys doing most, and on the evidence of these excerpts youcan see why.

I will be back tomorrow, and hopefully I will be a little more compos mentis than I am today. The mens sano in corpore whatsit is not really working for me at the moment...
