 NOTES
     Here's hoping I have the spate of Waco Brothers dates right by now.
 
     The I Love Rich show on the 26th at Fireside is now on March 3rd.
 
     All the Over The Edge shows have been cancelled.
 
     I goofed on the Chris Whitley dates at Smart Bar.  They're 22nd-25th.
 
     The Tar show at Cagney's is postponed 'til some day in March.
