I’m excited that Ryan Case and Grant Goodwine are official GonzoFest 2015 artists!! We’re picking up steam headed towards this year’s festival, April 11th, on the Ohio River Waterfront Harbor Lawn Park with pre-festival film, music, spoken word the evening before at The Monkey Wrench, official GonzoFest headquarters!! I’m simultaneously looking towards GonzoFest 2016 (& 2017)!!
Today I submitted to the Production Team my suggestions for GonzoFest 2016 official artists:
1) Ralph Steadman (huge top secret surprise in store regarding a new Steadman 2016 creation).
2) Gonzo Today Editor-in-Chief Clayton Luce.
3) Gonzo Today Contributing Artist Joey Feldman.
4) Louisville sculptor Matthew Weir who will create the life size bronze statue of Hunter S. Thompson.
Thanks you ALL!!!!
