 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 ANDY RECOMMENDS
     Fri: Off Broadway at Cabana Beach Club: I don't know if I can call it a
          "recommendation", but I'll be there anyway.
     Thu: The Rocktober Record Release Party (see below)
 
 ROCKTOBER RECORD RELEASE PARTY
     June 22 is the Rocktober Record Release party at Fireside.  The Goblins
     and the Hideaways will have their new 7" available there, and will be
     performing along with a bevy of other bands.  Also, the new Rocktober
     magazine, the "Midgets in Rock'n'Roll" issue, will be available.
     Rocktober is one of the top 3 cool zines in existence today.
 
 PALATINE FREE CONCERTS
     I've expanded the list of free concerts at the Community Park
     Amphitheater here in Palatine.  It's a nice place, it's free, and it's
     about 5 blocks from my house.
 
 SUMMER FESTIVALS
     Summer festival season is here, and you know what that means:
     Washed-up rock'n'roll warhorses lumbering across the suburbs, often
     lucky to have an actual original member.
 
     Please help keep us here at Shows List Central apprised of any
     has-beens in your area.  If you see ads trumpeting, say, Foghat or A
     Flock Of Seagulls at Naperville Ribfest, let me know ASAP.
 
 SHELLAC AT FALLOUT CLUB
     This week we have the full line-up of the two Shellac extravaganzas at
     the Fallout Comedy Club.  The show will be an all ages event, so you
     youngsters no longer have an excuse to miss my other Favorite Band On
     The Planet.
 
 LOLLAPALOOZER TICKETS
     Tickets go on sale Saturday at 10am.  Also, the second stage lineup is
     down in the listings.

 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.
