Welcome to my “11th Annual Gonzo Holiday Gear Guide,” featuring another magical
collection of awesome gear that’s simply too gonzo to live without for another minute but, at the same time, will give you perfect gift ideas for the gonzo photographer on your Holiday Gift list.
It’s hard to believe it’s been 11 years since I started this tradition here in the magazine. Why, when I started it, Jimmy Carter was still President; we listened to music on our 8-track tape players; and every home had a VCR that could record up to 60 minutes on one tape (don’t think about any of that too long, because I’m not sure that timeline is 100% accurate).
Anyway, no one is more surprised than me that this is still “a thing” after 11 years, but let’s not dwell on that; instead, let’s tear into this bad boy and see what’s on this year’s list.
Before we get to the list, just remember: The holidays are about giving, and who is giving you what and how much so you can post pictures of it on social media. So don’t be shy: Act like a millennial, even if you’re actually old enough to still be a fan of Roosevelt.
