I'M YER GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN

The weather is grey and chilly, and there is nothing much to say. In fact there is, but if I wrote: "I am not my brightest and best today, but at least I am better than I was yesterday. However, if I owe you an email or something, don't be surprised if you don't get it today. Normal service will be resumed once my medication kicks in..." which is the truth, it might not give the professional, and cheery image that I try so hard to forge...

I first met Rob Ayling the day after we were both at a Daevid Allen concert back in 1988, and the pothead pixie has always been one of my favourite artists. Here is a rare interview with the man which I snaffled from 'Psychedelic Baby' magazine...

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?
