THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS HIDING ROUND THE CORNER

It is still cold outside but apart from that we are having lovely spring weather. The snowdrops outside my office window are out surprisingly late. They are usually gone by now and there are surprisingly few daffodils to replace them. Next year I am going to start recording the dates to see if I can find out why. I have just discovered that my old boss Steve Harley put out an album in 2010 that I never heard. There are a few flashes of the old brilliance on there so I shall probably be plugging it unmercifully. I hope that the 2013 CFZ Yearbook will be out this week, which is good news. I shall also be announcing some other jolly things very soon....
Once again we repair to Austin for our daily audience with Thom the World Poet

An insightful Cris Roversi review. I really must catch up with him for a chat. His new album is extraordinarily good

*  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 - imaginatively - The Gonzo Weekly. Find out about it at this link:

* We should probably mention here that some of our posts are links to things we have found on the internet that we think are of interest. We are not responsible for spelling or factual errors in other people's websites. Honest guv!

*  Jon Downes, the editor of all these ventures (and several others),is an old hippy of 53 who, together with his orange cat (who is currently on sick leave in Staffordshire) and a not-very-small orange kitten (who isn't), puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon, which he shares with various fish. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, his elderly mother-in-law, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus... did we mention the orange cats?
