                            The Chicago Shows List
                         I stood on the porch in a tie
                          Shows of note as of 6/8/95
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 ANDY RECOMMENDS
     Fri: Oblivion in some Naperville Church basement
     Sat: Boris The Sprinkler / Riverdales at the Arl. Hts. KofC hall
     Thu: The Palatine Battle Of The Bands!  I'll be there!
 
     Also, recordedly, Pink Floyd's new live "Pulse" is pretty great.
 
 OBLIVION / NO EMPATHY / APOCALYPSE HOBOKEN IN DEKALB
     That show on Saturday at Otto's is NOT going on.  It was a misprint in
     the Entertainer.  Good thing I called, eh?
 
 BONNIE RAITT 6/18 CANCELED
     Bonnie Raitt's 6/18 show at Arie Crown is canceled.  The 17th is on.
 
 TOM PETTY
     Tom Petty tickets go on sale Saturday at noon.  One of the shows I had
     at the World is really at Alpine Valley.
 
 FIRESIDE SHOWS
     Those of you who go to Fireside, check the list each week, because the
     schedule is anything but constant.  When new bands are added, they're
     not listed as new, but the show is marked with a plus.
 
 MUDHONEY
     Friday's Mudhoney show now starts at 6:30.
 
 ASS PONYS
     Ass Ponys canceled Lounge Ax on Saturday.  Refunds at the door.
 
 PENTHOUSE PETS IN THE SHOWS LIST
     I'm struck by the absurdity of having a Penthouse Pet in-store
     appearances at Tower.  How can I not put such a thing in here?

 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.
