THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS PERPLEXED

Another packed week has gone by
and I really don't understand why
Father Time is now my master
as I get older, time goes faster
But it is Sunday once again,
a day I cause poetry buffs pain,
because each week at about this time
I do the Gonzo blogs in rhyme
I do it cos it makes me laugh
not cos it makes the purists barf,
my reasoning is plain to see
my poetry amuses me.
Jefferson Starship have the Track of the Day
You know what I mean, Wayhay!
It's my favourite of their songs, I mean it yeah
it's the Volunteers of America

Now check this out, I think you'd better
Issue 20 of our cool newsletter
has just gone out (what a cool description)

Whilst surfing the net I recently spied
guitarist Kevin Peek has died
which made me sad, do you know why?
well, he used to be in a band called 'Sky'

And now it's time (before I blow it)
to go check out Thom the World Poet
who does his stuff in Austin Town
I'm gonna meet him next time I go down

And now I give you a personal blast
out of my particular personal past
read it guys, it won't take long
but Steve Harley once sang me a Bob Dylan song

And now I have especially for you
a Jon Davison interview
who is he? Why, can't you guess?
He's the new lad out of 'Yes'

*  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) and his new orange kitten 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 cats?
