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.
