The Chicago Shows List: Don't make us grumpy
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
NOTES:
There's no New This Week section because it used too much memory to run
on this crappy 286 and I've been screwing around with getting it to run
for the past 2 hours and I'm going to bed. It should be fixed next week.
The most notable New This Week would be Tori Amos at the Bismarck.
More Poplar Creek shows go on sale on Friday and Saturday.
