 MULTIPLE LISTS... AGAIN
     I'm sorry, but I never got a chance to process the influx of change
     requests from those of you who wanted to get the date-order list, so
     I'm sending both date- and venue-order lists this week, too.  Next
     week, I should have it fixed up so that you don't get a list you don't
     want.
 
 CORRECTIONS
     No Use For A Name at Fireside:  Feb 29, not Feb 28.
 
 CORPORATE UNDERWRITING
     The Alan Jackson concert at the Horizon on Feb 23 is sponsored by...
     Fruit Of The Loom?  I wonder how the marketing people decided to go
     with THAT.  "OK, boys, we need to make inroads into the urban
     shitkicker market..."
 
 RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS RESCHEDULED
     The postponed 11/18 RHCP show at the United Center is now March 6th.
