The Gonzo Daily: Monday/Tuesday
Weird Weekend regulars will remember Becky (friend of Shosh and Aurelia and
purveyor of awesome cupcakes). You will all, I think, be glad to hear that her
baby boy Benjamin Paul MacMillan arrived at 7:45am this morning weighing 8
pounds. Once again I shall don my Uncle Jon hat.
Forgive me for banging on about our webTV show, but it matters a lot to me,
and I would be grateful for an many people as possible to see it, and spread the
tidings of it far and wide:
But now, here is the news:

THE A IS FOR APPLE ISSUE
We meet the legendary Judge Smith and talk about his new film, The Garden
of Fifi Chamoix, and still in a horticultural mood Alan visits an Apples and Art
exhibit which sounds cracking fun. Richard presents the second part of his
critique of Steve Kimock, Jon muses about Cat Stevens and Liam Gallagher, and
Biffo causes ructions in the Lord of the Rings gaming community.
Wooooot!
And there are radio shows from Mack Maloney, Canterbury sans Frontieres and
Friday Night Progressive. Strange Fruit, is taking a week off, but will be back
soon. We also have columns from all sorts of folk including Roy Weard, C J
Stone, Mr Biffo, Neil Nixon and the irrepressible Corinna. There is also a
collection of more news, reviews, views, interviews and southern dibblers who
have books to peruse (OK, nothing to do with small marsupials who have been to
the library, 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.co.uk
* 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 58 who - together with a Jack Russell called Archie, an infantile
orange cat named after a song by Frank Zappa, and two half grown kittens, one
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. 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 Archie and the Cats?
