THE UNDERGROUND IN KENOSHA I guess this place called The Underground in Kenosha is doing punk shows, but I have no contact info for anyone there. If anyone can forward info to me, I'd appreciate it. THE QUEERS I've been told that the Queers show in Elgin is moved to Evanston, but I don't know where. I'd assume Hemensway, but I'm leaving it listed as being in Elgin until I hear more.
