 CLASSICAL INFORMATION
     I stumbled across a WWW page that lets you search for classical
     concerts in the Chicago area.  It's at
     http://andyspc.rh.uchicago.edu/music/concerts.html.
 
 HELP YOUR FELLOW LIST READERS
     If you find any interesting info that would be good for the List,
     please let me know.  The Faith No More date at the World was
     contributed by a reader who found it on the FNM WWW page.
 
 HI MOM!
     My mother gets the Shows List now, ever since the article in the
     Tribune.  Last week she sent me mail asking if I would make a list for
     "old folks like me", since the only name she recognized was Gordon
     Lightfoot.  I can't, but Peter, Paul & Mary ARE on the list twice, and
     there's that Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber thing at the World, too.
 
 BAND NAME OF THE WEEK
     Bongzilla, hands down.
 
 SUBSCRIPTION INFO
     Mail a request to <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>.  Please mention where you
     saw the list, just for my own curiosity.

 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
     -   Information about other shows list across the country
     -   Anything other comments, etc
 
 You can also get it from Far Post BBS, (708) 934-6224
 
 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.
