I'M YER GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN





It's sunday morning goodness me
I was still typing at half past three
and I didn't get to sleep till five
its a wonder that I'm still alive
There's something wrong, I really think
My body clock is out of synch
But its sunday and again its time
to do the Gonzo thing in rhyme
 
For some reason when I awoke
I was thinking hard about this bloke
one of my favourites, you'll liken him too
here's a Kevin Coyne song just for you

Here's another treat for you
An exclusive Michael Des Barres review
and pictures taken with a zoom
on friday night at the Viper Room

Now once again (wouldn't you know it)
we visit Thomas the World Poet
the more I read, the more I've found
his politics are really sound...

I've found Johnny Foreigners are rum coves
because they don't heard sheep in droves
across the city (for goodness sakes man)
the guy doing it is our Rick Wakeman

And now a really cool review
of a gig in 1972
Ideal for us muso bores
with Hawkwind, Sandy, and The Doors

And now with our banners unfurled
here's Cathy, the Jefferson Starship girl
a really groovy rock and roll chick
who's now taken over from Grace Slick

That's just about it for this humble freak
the poems will be back next week
 
The Gonzo Daily is a two way process. If you have any news or want to write for us, please contact me at jon@eclipse.co.uk. If you are an artist and want to showcase your work, or even just say hello please write to me at gonzo@cfz.org.uk. Please copy, paste and spread the word about this magazine as widely as possible. We need people to read us in order to grow, and as soon as it is viable we shall be invading more traditional magaziney areas. Join in the fun, spread the word, and maybe if we all chant loud enough we CAN stop it raining. See you tomorrow...

The Gonzo Daily is - as the name implies - a daily online magazine (mostly) about artists connected to the Gonzo Multimedia group of companies. But it also has other stuff as and when the editor feels like it. The Editor is an old hippy of 53 who - together with his orange cat - puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the orange cat?
