The Gonzo Daily - Sunday
And for no real reason Sunday's notifications are done in rhyme
Bloody hell my reader friend
its been a whole damn week since the Weird Weekend
its frightening how time goes so fast
from the now, the present into the past
but I don't wish to get all philosophical here
I will just go off and drink some beer
love on ya J

Gonzo Weekly #197
Gonzo Magazine #197
In this issue we say goodbye to a gracious and very talented lady: Gilli
Smyth of Gong. Doug goes to see Brian Ferry, Alan goes to see what the British
Library has to say about Punk, and explains Futurology and Free Cultural Spaces,
while Jon waffles on about stuff.
And there are radio shows from Strange Fruit, Mack Maloney, and Friday
Night Progressive. We also have columns from all sorts of folk including Roy
Weard, Mr Biffo, Neil Nixon and the irrepressible Corinna. There is also a
thrilling and slightly disturbing episode of Xtul. There is also a collection of
more news, reviews, views, interviews and pademelons outside zoos(OK, nothing to
do with small marsupials who have escaped from captivity, 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!!!
