The Gonzo Daily - Sunday
And for no real reason Sunday's notifications are done in rhyme
It's Sunday, and so I do my best
to be productive on the day of rest
and so that's what I have done today
and I've achieved quite a lot...way hay
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:
A HOLOGRAM TO BE FRANK
PLAYLIST: F 229 – 8 OCT 2017?

THE SENSORIUM SUPERSTARS ISSUE
In which we meet the very legendary Dana Gillespie, Alan goes to the Hapi
Festival, Richard presents part one of a short series on Steve Kimock, Greg
remembers seeing Gentle Giant back in the day, Graham writes about Hawkwind,and
we send Sensorium Girliebox to a desert island!And is there more? You can bet
your pondohs there is. And it is all free/buckshee/gratis. There may not be such
a thing as a free lunch, but there is a truly free magazine!

Night Progressive. 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 common planigales
who have cooked some stews (OK, nothing to do with small marsupials who have
been culinarily creative, 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

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?
