I'M YER GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN

Yesterday's 'Fun Day' at Barnstaple Museum went rather well. There were more kids than I expected, and I hope that we enthused a few young minds. Today has begun with a shock; all the water is missing from our caecilian tank, and there are no puddles on the floor. All the inhabitants seem to be OK, but as I type, Graham, Sheri, and Richard are fixing up new accommodation. Today is Sheri's last day. We shall miss her and look forward to her next visit in the spring...

We start off (as we do every day) with a visit to Thom the World Poet, for a poem which should really have gone up yesterday. However, rather than keep it for 12 months, I liked it so much it is up today...

I just found this rather groovy interview with Michael Des Barres via a link on his website..

Another review of the rather spiffing new DVD by The Move in the Lost Broadcasts series

A brief news item about the ABWH CD/DVD package

As regular readers will be awar, one of my favourite singers is Eric Burdon, and it is rumoured that there is a new album and tour in the works...

I was very impressed by the performance of Cathy Richardson, the lead singer with Jefferson Starship when I saw them the other week. But until reading this interview I had no idea what a funny lady she was...

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?
