The Gonzo Daily - Monday
I like Sundays. I wrote the blogs in bad poetry and
then do as little as possible. My lovely wife and stepdaughter took the smaller
and sprightly dog out for a long walk at Fremington, and Mother, Prudence and I
spent the afternoon reading and dozing, and doing very little else. All three of
my womenfolk in residence are going out to spend the day visiting National Trust
properties, while I stay at home and make a valiant attempt to finish On The
Track. Graham came back from London yesterday at about tea time. Apparently his
mission to interview Keith Levene went according to plan, and I suspect that
some of the results of this will be in next week's Gonzo Weekly.
This week's issue of Gonzo Weekly is here.
Hooray!!! It has lots of Rick Wakeman stuff, a Cyrille Verdeaux auto-interview
and a report on The Musical Box plus Acid Mothers Temple, Dr Who, Hawkwind, Eric
Burdon, Wreckless Eric, and more news, reviews, views, interviews and sheep
having a snooze (OK, no sleepy sheepies) but I got carried away with things that
rhymed with OOOOS) than you can shake a stick at. And the best part is IT's
ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!
To make sure that you don't miss your copy of this

PS: If you are already a subscriber but think that
you haven't been receiving your copies please check your spam filters. For some
reason known only to the Gods of the internet, some e-mail programmes
automatically count the magazine as 'spam' probably because it comes from a mass
mailer. Either that or they are just jealous of our peerless
content
* 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: www.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 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?
