 NOTE: Some people have sent us strident warnings that the KLF show at the
 Cubby Bear is not actually The KLF, but just a former backup singer who
 lip-syncs to KLF songs, while all sorts of sexual-type things happen on
 stage.  To me, that sounds more interesting than the real KLF.  However, 
 the warnings carried a tone of dire urgency that would make one think that 
 showgoers would also be sold into slavery upon paying the cover charge, so 
 I figure I should mention it.  Consider yrselves warned.
