Gonzo Weekly #373/4


Gonzo Weekly #373/4
THE END OF THE WORLD ISSUE
http://www.gonzoweekly.com/
In this humorously eschatological issue, Alan reports on the End of the World Party in Yorkshire, Graham reports on the death of ex-Hawkwind drummer Martin Griffin, Jon muses on Paul McCartney, Bill Drummond and various other things, Iccy meats Neal X from Sigue Sigue Sputnik, and Doug gives us part two of his article about the immortal and invisible Terry Hall.
And there are radio shows from Mack Maloney and Friday Night Progressive AND Canterbury sans Fronieres AND Merrell Fankhauser, but no sign of Strange Fruit this week, there is a column from Kev Rowland, but Mr Biffo, and C J Stone, and Neil Nixom abd Roy Weard, are on hiatus. There is also a collection of more news, reviews, views, interviews and antichinuses who have lost their shoes (OK, nothing to do with tiny marsupials who are searching for their 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!!!

...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.
