The Gonzo Daily - Tuesday
There is another update from Daevid Allen via the
Daevid Alien Facebook Page: "Tomorrow daevid will have a second operation to
stem the leaking lymph node. This will be his third general anesthetic operation
in 14 days - yes it's been just two weeks since the first big operation. I guess
those larger procedures take a bit of tidying up sometimes. Let's focus and hope
the op is successful this time and therefore the last that daevid has to
endure."
I made (what I thought was) a witty response to a
friend writing to say that he wasn't going to be able to make it to the Weird
Weekend this year, which I described to Corinna as Whistleresque. Whistler (as
of the painting of his Mother) sent a telegram to arrive in the middle of Oscar
Wilde's wedding reading "Am Delayed, don't wait". That is something I always
thought massively amusing, but then again many of my tastes are massively out of
date. I don't get most modern comedians but still find Diary of a Nobody highly
amusing.

* 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 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?
