I'M YER GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN

It's sunday and I'm feeling trippy,
so here's some rhymes from this old hippy
"wot, poetry!!" I hear you freak
don't worry, I do it every week
and not to make my readers barf,
I do it 'cos it makes me laugh
every lunchtime on a Sunday
becomes the Gonzo Daily fun day

Into the future we will peek,
we have The Rolling Stones all week
it's their anniversary don't you see
we've been sent a book and a DVD

Helen was a cool punkette
but her story isn't over yet
last week she had a chat with me
about her limited edition CD

I'm very fond of Michael Des Barres
a talented chap who should go far
so here, because I like the man
cool memorabilia from Japan

I like this silly photograph
basically cos it makes me laugh
visual jokes all resonate with me
especially ones about ELP

On the other side of the world
is a brave little Pakistani girl,
What's she doing on Gonzo (wouldn't you know it)?
here's a tribute by Thom the World Poet

And finally a picture of our Liz
my favourite in the music biz
she's really good (I'm not a liar)
here's a pic of her with her choir

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 Editor is an old hippy of 53 who - together with his orange cat - puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the orange cat?
