The Gonzo Daily - Sunday
And for no real reason Sunday's notifications are done in rhyme
Another week has come and gone
Another week has been and went
Another week of stuff to do
Another week of money spent
Another week of things to fix
Another week of politics
Another week of sleet and rain
and now it's Sunday once again
and once again I find the time
to do the Sunday blogs in rhyme

Cruise to the Edge, Jon critiques a classic book about the Roling Stones, we go
through the new album by The Raz Band track by Track, and Corinna sneers at some
more tacky pop memorabilia. John talks about Prefab Sprout, abd nourbs the dead
in the Paris Terrorist Attacks, Xtul are back in the deep woods. Neil unearths a
hidden gem, Thom waxes all poetical like, whilst the legendary Roy Weard
continues his regular column, C J Stone does his, A J Smitrovich continues
thumbing through his Dad's LPs, and Mr Biffo has more of his regular slices of
insanity from the world of Digitiser 2000, and there is a radio show from
Strange Fruit, one from Friday Night Progressive and another from Mack Moloney.
There is also a collection of more news, reviews, views, interviews and
antechinuses wanting poos (OK, nothing to do with small marsupials who are
slightly constipated, 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!!!

SPECIAL NOTICE: If you, too, want to unleash the power of your inner rock
journalist, and want to join a rapidly growing band of likewise minded weirdos
please email me at jon@eclipse.co.uk The more the merrier really.
* 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/…/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit…
* 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 56 who - together with an infantile orange cat named after a song
by Frank Zappa, and a small kitten totally coincidentally named after one of the
Manson Family, purely because she squeaks, 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 young lady called Jessica. 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
infantile orange cat, and the adventurous kitten?
