I'M YER GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN

Sundays are a special time

when I produce this blog in rhyme

sometimes to people's bemusement

always for my own amusement

I know that it is now't but doggerel,

and sometimes my rhymes are worse than horrible

but this is a tradition that never ends

of bad poetry between friends

So now the posts have just begun

with Judy Dyble and a terrible pun

and computer issues that don't fit

technofear and the lowest form of wit

Jefferson Starship are great fun,

with their singer Cathy Richardson,

and I've got great news for you here

they're touring again for us next year

http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/12/cathy-richardson-embarks-w-jefferson.html

And now we go to Austin City

where the poets are great and the girls our pretty

and we do what we do every day,

go see Thom the World Poet wayhay!

Now something important I must say

Newsletter #3 went out yesterday

and from the hgits we got last night

I guess I'm doing something right

And lastly time to take a look

at vids of Ms McCookerybook

Helen and the Horns - a band that's fine

there's lots more stuff of theirs online

http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/12/more-helen-and-horns-vids.html

And that's it from this rhyming freak

I'll be back again like this next week

but if you cannot keep away

there's gonzo postings every day

*  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 same team also do a weekly newsletter called - imaginitavely - The Gonzo Weekly. Find out about it at this link: http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/11/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit-to-print.html

*  Jon Downes, the Editor of all these ventures 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, his mother-in-law, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the orange cat?
