CORKY LAING: Rob and Corky's most excellent adventure (1)


Well sports fans... Gonzo Grande Formage - Rob Ayling was in Preston at Corky Laings "Best Seat in the House" lecture at Lancaster University. 

What a great lecture from Corky, great fun, lots of anecdotes and laughs. Ever since Corky mentioned he was doing these lectures Rob has always wanted to go. Here at Corky's one and only UK lecture he was able to finally go and see it. 

Corky told a great story about as a boy been sent to principals office and he was asked "What are you going to do when you grow up?". Corky replied " I want to be a drummer". To which the Principal replied, "You better decide, as you can't do both!!!".

A great evening.....

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
