THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN DOES NOT LIKE THE MOON

The Gonzo Daily - Friday
 
Anyone who has not been through it will find this hard to believe, but there is a palpable feeling of relief once the Full Moon is over, and both the tides and the chemistry of my cerebral cortex can slowly return to normal. It is not fun being a cultural cliche. At least I don't howl at the moon, like Tessie our old dog did. This afternoon I am scheduled to interview Andy Colquhoun of The Deviants, and tomorrow morning I am talking to Carol Hodge, and - hopefully - Steve Ignorant. On top of all this I have done the cover for the new issue of Animals & Men, so all is far from lost!
 
Another visit to our old friend Thom the World Poet.

*  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 54 who - together with his orange cat (who is currently on sick leave in Staffordshire) and two very small kittens (one of whom is also orange) puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon which he shares with various fish, and sometimes a small Indian frog. 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 cat?
