 THE RIVERDALES: PUNK AS NOTHING
     My short editorial on the Riverdales opening for Green Day:
     
     Ben Weasel, don't EVER talk about "what punk is" again.  It's rare
     that I see the term "sell-out" actually applying to a band, but in this
     case, the Riverdales fit the bill.  After years of posturing in the
     pages of MRR and being a mythic figure in the Chicago Punk Scene,
     whatever that is, to play the UIC Pavillion is the height of hypocrisy.
 
 BROOOOOOCE!
     Bruce Springsteen will be playing the Rosemont Theater on December 3rd.
     Tickets will go on sale Saturday at noon.
 
     CHECK ON THIS YOURSELVES.  Call TicketMaster at 312-559-1212 and make
     sure that you have correct info BEFORE Saturday morning.
 
 RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS POSTPONED
     The RHCP show at the United Center on the 18th has been postponed
     because the drummer broke a wrist.  I assume the 22nd show at the Mecca
     is postponed as well.
 
 GUIDED BY VOICES OFF THE URGE TOUR
     Guided By Voices have left the Urge Overkill tour.
 
 SHANE McGOWAN AT 7:00, NOT 10:00
     Tickets for Shane McGowan say the show is at 7:00, not 10:00.
 
 BILLY BRAGG VENUE CHANGE
     Billy Bragg is now at Park West, not Double Door.  Additional tickets
     are available.
