The Chicago Shows List
Livin' right overneath your nose
Shows of note as of 05/11/95
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEAVING SCHOOL?
If you're leaving school for the summer, please let me know to drop you
from the list. I'd much rather drop your name and add you in the fall
than to deal with all the bounces because of closed or full mailboxes.
I thank all of you so far who have done so, but that's silly because
you're not reading this.
ANDY RECOMMENDS
5/13 - Apocalypse Hoboken in-store at Over The Edge in Elgin
5/18 - The Muffs / Full / The Indicators at Lounge Ax
5/19 - Poster Children / The Smoothies at Metro
TAR
Tar will not be playing Fireside on Saturday. Mike Greenless had an
appendectomy and can't play. The rest of the show will go on, but it's
unclear whether Tar will be replaced, and if so by who. I've heard
rumors of Pegboy (somewhat likely), Shellac (less likely) or nobody
(prob'ly most likely). They'll be giving refunds on the tickets at the
door in any case.
I just got mail from John Mohr who confirms the cancellation, and says
to "look for a 'Record Release/End of the Line' weekend around
Thanksgiving."
AGENT ORANGE
Both Fireside and Empty Bottle say that Agent Orange will be at their
fine venue on the 21st. Maybe Agent Orange will play both, since
the venues are only about 5 minutes from each other.
MILWAUKEE BASEMENT SHOWS
There are some punk shows down at the end of the list that are in
private basements in Milwaukee. I don't have any contact info yet.
LOLLAPALOOZA
Second stage lineup for the 7/15 Lollapalooza includes Yo La Tengo, The
Coctails, Coolio, Brainiac, and The Geraldine Fibbers.
CORRESPONDENCE & SUBSCRIPTIONS
Mail anything Shows List-related to <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>.
Additions, corrections, requests, anything.
If you'd like to subscribe, just ask, and let me know where you saw the
list. If you recommend the list to someone else, please have them tell
me that they heard about it word-of-mouth.
