What are these lists?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                   The Chicago Shows List fix me, all right?
                          Shows of note as of 8/31/95
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 ANDY RECOMMENDS
     Fri:    Gaunt will be at Fireside.  They played at the first of the two
             Fallout Club Shellac shows, and I was impressed.
     Sat:    Any of three shows will do: Muffs @ Metro, Silkworm @ Lounge
             Ax, or the punkathon at the UofI Union.
 
 BJORN AGAIN
     Bjorn Again are a frighteningly entertaining British ABBA cover band.
     They're playing the Park West.  It's worth it.
 
 COINCIDENCE... OR SOMETHING MORE SINISTER?
     The bands Doris and El Dopa will be at Lounge Ax Wednesday.  Both are
     bands whose names are the same as Albini-band song titles.  (The Big
     Black song is really "L Dopa", but that's close enough for esoteric
     trivia.)
 
     Also on the bill are Stagmummer, with whom I can find no references to
     anything at all.  Best suggestion for who the third band should have
     been, to maintain the theme, wins a Chicago Shows List Dollar.

 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

     -   Subscription requests, or drop requests

 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.
