THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN MAKES FRIENDS WITH SOME POULTRY

Yesterday was an interesting day. A dead dog washed up on a Welsh beach provoked comment, more news on David Bowie's new album whetted my appetite, and we had a long and interesting walk through the woods at Huddisford with the dog. It is still bloody cold though, although I have been told that the weather will start getting warm again soon. I hope so, because yesterday I spent too much time chilling with my bitch (Prudence and I both got awfully cold - if this weather continues I am going to have to look at buying her one of those doggy coats).
An interesting interview with Eric Burdon, together with a snippet from his new album. The player works on my computer, so I hope it works on all of yours.

*  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:

* 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 53 who - together with his orange cat (who is currently on sick leave in Staffordshire) 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 the orange cat?
