                            The Chicago Shows List
                    We refuse to acknowledge those gunshots
                   until we receive a decent-sized pork chop
                         Shows of note as of 03/16/95
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 KING CRIMSON UPDATE
     King Crimson tickets go on sale on Saturday.  They'll be at the
     Bismarck Theatre on the June 10th.  My original sources said the
     Riviera on the 14th.  Maybe they'll wait 'til the 10th show sells out
     before announcing the 14th?  I'm leaving the Riv date in until I hear
     something definite.
 
 R.E.M. UPDATE
     I have no info on whether they'll be playing their 3 shows at the
     Horizon, since Bill Berry had his aneurysm in Europe.  Alert Shows List
     Reader Taeya Spencer sent me this, though:
 
         We heard on the TV (Entertainment Tonight or something) that due to
         the drummers surgery, REM is not expecting to perform for about 3
         months, until END of June, AFTER the Chicago dates!!  This was last
         week, since them we heard other guesses that they might play by the
         Chicago dates, but again, no official word other than TV Tabloid
         show...
 
 CONTEST WINNER
     The "guess how many subscribers we'll have in 2 weeks" contest is now
     over, and the winner is...  I dunno.  I'll look into it after I get the
     list out.

 The Shows List is updated late every Thursday night.  You can get it over
 the Internet in two ways:
 
     World-Wide Web:     http://www.mcs.net/~alester/
     Mail subscription:  <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>  Ask to be added, and 
                         mention where you found out about the list.
 
 Please mail to shows@farpost.chi.il.us:
     -   New shows you'd like to see added
     -   Any corrections to anything in the list
     -   Subscription requests, or drop requests

 There are many other shows lists available on the Internet.  As far as I
 know, unless the address is "listproc" or "listserv", the list is run by a
 human, not an automated list-management program.
