The Chicago Shows List will be mentioned, and even with a picture of me. "Gonna buy 5 copies for my mother..." FIRESIDE CHANGES APLENTY About half of the September Fireside shows are now different. Double check those that you're interested, and look at the rest for new stuff (like Gaunt on September 1). Also, the Alice Donut show at Fireside is now at Metro. THE WARPED TOUR That big skaterfest in the Horizon parking lot now features locals Alligator Gun and Blue Meanies. DICK DALE This week's Cubby Bear ad lists Dick Dale on Sept 30, with this assurance: "Dick says 'This date will not change!!'" I hope I can even find my ticket from way back in March. DORK BAND ALERT Add to the list of stupid computer-related band names Hunt The Wumpus. Previous winners include Dots Will Echo and Fortran V.
