 BAND NAME OF THE WEEK
     Belch & Heave, at the Chamber in Madison
 
 DON'T CALL US, WE'LL CALL YOU
     If you happen to know my phone number, and think I won't mind if you
     give it to someone else without asking me, think again.  I do this as a
     service to you readers, and the last thing I need is people calling me
     up to advertise their shows for them.
 
     If you know someone who wants to get information about a show to me,
     send it to me for them in email.  If that's not possible, mail it to:
     PO Box 884, Palatine, IL, 60078.
 
 CONTACT INFORMATION
     Mail to <shows@tezcat.com>.  For subscriptions, tell me where you found
     out about us.
