 NEW RELEASES LIST
     The New Releases mailing list returned a few months ago.  It's been
     redesigned and is worlds easier to read.

     e-mail <new-releases-request@cs.uwp.edu> or <majordomo@cs.uwp.edu> with
     only the following in the body of the message:  subscribe new-releases

 THE QUEERS IN ELGIN
     The Queers show in Elgin isn't going on.  It'll be in Rockford.  It may
     be the same day, but I don't know.
 
 NOMEANSNO AT FIRESIDE
     Check out the October 15th listing for Fireside.  This one is definite.
 
 URGE OVERKILL AT TOWER
     Urge will be playing electric at Tower on Saturday.  It's not just a
     meet'n'greet.  It's up to you to decide whether that's an improvement.
 
 SEAM AT TOWER
     If you DO go see Urge, get there early (like, 4 hours early) to see
     Seam, who are actually good.
