                            The Chicago Shows List
                       Obviously a major malfunction...
                          Shows of note as of 7/13/95
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 WE'RE BACK!
     It will take me months to get everything on my machine back to the way
     it was, but at least I didn't lose any shows list data.  I still don't
     have the farpost.chi.il.us site working, so keep mailing to
     <alester@mcs.com> if it's important.
 
     I also don't have all the new Madison shows included, even though Rob
     Jacob dutifully mailed them to me.  I'll get them in next week.
 
 METHADONES CANCELED
     The Methadones show at Czar Bar on Saturday is canceled.
 
 SUBSCRIPTIONS & CORRESPONDENCE
     Mail to <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>.  For subscriptions, tell me where
     you found us.
