http://www.gonzomultimedia.co.uk/about.htmlHi there, its me, yes I'm still alive
and yes I know its gone half past five
when usually on Sunday by half past two
I've done the blogs and sent them out to you
But I have had a hell of a week
far too much for this particular freak
so last night I slept for fifteen hours straight
and didn't get up until frightfully late
And I was still drinking my wake up tea
when Saskia my student IMd me
and asked me if I could possibly guide her
through a college assignment on the Siberian Tiger
Well, I am very fond of that young lady
so I didn't say no and I didn't say maybe
I took a drag from my fag and said of course
I would help her study for her college course
So I did all that and I cuddled the dogs,
but now I am back to work on the blogs
it'll be stupidly late when I finish them all
but it is the Lord's Day after all

http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2014/06/gonzo-weekly-81.html
The latest issue of Gonzo Weekly is here, and is available to read at www.gonzoweekly.com. It has the lovely Pam Windo on the front cover and features an interview with her by yours truly. We also have news of Galahad's new bass player (who is actually their old bass player), Corky Laing gets an award, Rita Drew waxes lyrical about Edison's Children, and Doug Harr goes to see Elbow and a lot of people panic about Yes' lead singer's throat. There are also new shows from the peculiar multiverse of Sub Reality Sandwich, from Friday Night Progressive, and from the multi-talented Neil Nixon at Strange Fruit and a collection of more news, reviews, views, interviews and high-heeled shoes (OK, no specialist footwear, 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 FREE!!!

* 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: http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/11/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit-to-print.html
* 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 54 who - together with an orange kitten named after a song by Frank Zappa - puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon, which he shares with various fish and sometimes a small Indian frog. 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 kitten?
