 WE HAVE A LOGO
     The Chicago Shows List has a supercool logo.  It was put together by
     Shows List reader and supercool guy Mark Evans (mark@automedia.com).
     It's up on the Shows List web page.
 
 CORRECTIONS / UPDATES / CHANGES
     Cypress Hill is at the Aragon Ballroom 2/23, not 2/28.
 
 GUESS THE REFERENCE
     A genuine Shows List Dollar to the best/first response from someone to
     correctly identify the lyrical reference at the top of the list.  I
     think I may make this a weekly feature if the response is there.
