The Chicago Shows List
I'm sorry that it RAINED... all night
Shows of note as of 05/04/95
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANDY RECOMMENDS
This weekend: The Goblins at Fireside on Friday will be completely
nuts. Sunday, see the Parasites at Fireside.
AGENT ORANGE
The show at Fireside has been moved to Empty Bottle with a different
lineup.
DICK DALE
This week's Cubby Bear ad reads "Dick Dale has been postponed due to an
extended European tour. New date will be announced soon. Tickets for
3/11 & 5/27 will be honored." Oh well.
MILWAUKEE SKA
The big ska show at the Milwaukee VFW Hall has been cancelled.
PEARL JAM
Pearl Jam will be playing Soldier Field, probably July 10. The two
shows at Summerfest are not confirmed, and will have to go through
TicketMaster, not the new system that will be used for the Soldier
Field show.
INERTIA ENSEMBLE
Chris Fuller of Dis- mails me the following info on Inertia Ensemble,
who have two performances on Saturday at Shank Hall:
The Inertia Ensemble is a Milwaukee theater group comprised of young
bodies with theater degrees who have actively disregarded the formal
theater community in order to bring decent, unpretentious theater
productions to a twenties/thirties crowd in bars and small performance
spaces around town. Theater for the people, I guess.
This Saturday's performance will include a series of five one-acts.
These will be: "Gates of Hell", "Eskimo", "Farewell to Santa Claus",
"Little Red Riding Hamlet", "Skinhead Hamlet"
I mention this to you guys for two reasons: I think these people are
really doing something worthwhile, and two: I am vain. I got roped
into playing Hamlet in "Skinhead Hamlet"
SUBSCRIPTION INFO
Mail a request to <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>. Please mention where you
saw the list, just for my own curiosity.
