The Gonzo Daily - Tuesday
News! News! News!
I have now received a list of recoverable files
from my buggered hard drive, and everything seems to be there. I also received a
demand for payment which is not as high as I feared, but higher than I had
hoped. Hopefully this nightmare will soon be over. Corinna is away for a few
days visiting Shosh in Staffodshire, so Mother and the Kitten are in
charge...
John Shuttleworth, Ambrosia, David Pack, Bob
Harris, Graham Fellows, Glastonbury Festival, Roy Weard, Dogwatch, That
Legendary Wooden Lion, Hawkwind, Jon Anderson, and Yes fans had better look
out!
The latest issue of Gonzo Weekly (#134) is
available to read at www.gonzoweekly.com, and to download at http://www.gonzoweekly.com/pdf/. It
has John Shuttleworth on the front cover together with an exclusive interview
with him during which we also meet his manager and some bloke called Graham.
There is an exclusive interview with David Pack of Ambrosia, Jon examines a book
by Bob Harris, and goes through this year's Glastonbury Festival lineup, Thom
waxes all poetical like, whilst the legendary Roy Weard continues his regular
column. Xtul reveals a bit of the backstory, and there is a radio show from M
Destiny at Friday Night Progressive, and one from theose jolly nice chaps at
Strange Fruit. There is also a collection of more news, reviews, views,
interviews and pademelons looking for booze (OK, nothing to do with small
marsupials having difficulty in the offie, 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!!!

chaps, we have to share it!
* 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 55 who - together with an infantile orange cat named after a song
by Frank Zappa 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 infantile orange cat?
