The Chicago Shows List
Lawdy, mama, light my fuse
Shows of note as of 03/23/95
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
CORRECTIONS
I screwed up date and venue on the Belly show (Riv 4/14), and the date
of the Material Issue show (4/28). And THEN, I screw up the King
Crimson date in the notes, and don't even list it in the list.
SUBSCRIPTION INFO
Mail a request to <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>. Please mention where you
saw the list, just for my own curiosity.
