THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN CHASES HIS OWN TAIL

I woke up late with a slight hangover

got out of bed, pulled on my pullover
and then remembered; once again it's time
to do the Gonzo blogs in rhyme

 

I'm self indulgent once a week,
(the prerogative of a hard working freak)
I do the blogs in rhyme for you
it entertains me so to do

 

But I should start them now (I'd better)
yesterday I posted the newsletter
and all of a sudden I realised "Wow
we've done 21 issues now)

And now like I do every day
It's the Gonzo special Track of the Day
a real treat for all your ears
Jefferson Starship doing Volunteers

As you know I only occasionally rhyme
but some folk do it all the time
I admire this next man lots (you know it)
His name it is Thom the World poet

I don't want to get the waters muddy
but Davey Curtis (my dear beer buddy)
sent lots of pics to me you know
of Hawkwind's recent Preston show

And now its time for (can't you guess?)
a story 'bout Geoff Downes from Yes
a video report  I've had for days
about the keyboards that he plays
http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/studiologic-sledge-on-tour-with.html

 

And last a band who should stand tall
named after a picture by Marc Chagall
I think they're great, I love the album
here's The Green Violinist reviewed in Belgium

*  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: http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/11/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit-to-print.html

 

* 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 his new orange kitten 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?
