The Gonzo Daily - Friday/Saturday
I have so far not fallen victim to any April Fool jokes unless, of course,
the lovely lady at the Podiatrist Department of Bideford Hospital was joking
when she said I should take better care of my feet. The latest edition of
Animals & Men is out, the latest edition of the CFZ Newsletter has been
posted, and the latest edition of Gonzo Weekly will be out remarkably
soon.
And none of those are jokes.
FOR THOSE OF YOU INTERESTED IN MY DAY JOB
Fairport Convention - The Hiring Fair (2012)
COMING SOONER THAN YOU MIGHT THINK
THE GONZO TRACK OF THE DAY: Flying Burrito Brother...
THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem
Gonzo Magazine #176
Badfinger, Joey Molland, The Raz Band, Happy the Man, Live Music, Daevid
Allen, Gong, Greil Marcus, Mr Biffo, Roy Weard, Dogwatch, That Legendary Wooden
Lion, Hawkwind, and Yes fans had better look out!
Joey Molland, the last man standing of Badfinger is on the front cover,
with an interview with him about his work with The Raz Band inside. Doug gets
all lyrical about Happy the Man, John asks worrying questions about the future
of live music, Alan talks about his experiences with Daevid Allen the poet,
while we review a book by Greil Marcus and Biffo is uncertain about Crowd
Funding. There are radio shows from Strange Fruit and Mack Maloney, the latest
installment of the saga of Xtul, and columns from all sorts of folk including
Roy Weard, Neil Nixon and the irrepressible Corinna. There is also a collection
of more news, reviews, views, interviews and pademelons ouyside zoos(OK, nothing
to do with small marsupials who have escaped from captivity, 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!!!
