---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 Don't cry / Don't raise your eye / It's only
                            The Chicago Shows List 
                          Shows of note as of 9/7/95
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 ANDY RECOMMENDS
     Fri:    Foo at Fireside early.
             Galaxy of Mailbox Whores at Empty Bottle late.
     Sat:    No Empathy / Oblivion / Apocalypse Hoboken at Fireside.
     Sun:    Jamiroquai at Metro (Actually, I'm just going on a friend's
             rabid recommendation.)
 
 TELL YOUR FRIENDS!
     Tell all your friends, and even some enemies, about the Shows List: the
     more the merrier.  All they have to do is mail me.  BUT, please ask
     them to mention that they heard about it from you (as opposed to seeing
     it on the web, or seeing it on Usenet, or...).
 
 DICK DALE IN PALATINE
     Dick Dale will be at Harper College on September 27th.  The Harper
     auditorium only holds about 300, and 164 tickets have been sold so far.
     They're only $10.  
     
     This show will beat hell out of the Cubby Bear show, if only because
     you'll be able to see the man play, instead of craning to see over the
     drunk bozo in front of you.  Unfortunately, you STILL have to deal with
     seeing Spies Who Surf again.
 
 MORE PUNK IN HOMEWOOD
     Mike from the Shiznitz is putting on shows at the Homewood Village
     Hall.  The first show features Apocalypse Hoboken and No Empathy.
     Go and support the guy, because anything's better than Off The Alley.
 
 NOMEANSNO
     It would appear that the Nomeansno show at Fireside on 9/24 isn't going
     on.  Brian Fireside just left a ton o' shows on my machine, and that
     wasn't one of them.

 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

 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.
