What are these lists?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
                  Well, who are you to tell me how to live?
                 You think I sell my body, I merely sell my
                             Chicago Shows List
                                      
                        Shows of note as of 11/14/96

 BAND ORDER LISTS
 ----------------
 The band order list seems to be pretty popular.  I've received over 100
 requests from people to add it to their mailings.  However, I've received
 so many responses, and so many people didn't send their request in the
 right format according to the instructions, that I'm going to have to push
 those changes off until next week.
 
 
 RANDOM STUFF
 ------------
 In my frenzy to get the adorable band-order list out to you, I screwed up
 this week's list.  Some of the "new this week" are actually "new this week"
 leftovers from last week.
 
 The John Hiatt / Steve Earle tour has been canceled, but XRT is still
 trying get them out here for a Christmas show.  Check Lisa Kemper's Steve
 Earle page for more late breaking updates (http://www.mcs.net/~lisa/).
 
 
 GUESS THE REFERENCE
 -------------------
 It's the return of Guess The Reference.  For those of you coming in late:
 identify the song (usually) to which the heading for this week's list makes
 a reference.  Mail me at shows@tezcat.com, and include the name of the
 song, and the band/artist who do it, and your name.
 
 The prize is a fabulous Shows List Dollar.  There are two ways to win: You
 can win at random from all correct entries received, or if your entry is
 especially clever or interesting or whatever, you can win Best Entry, even
 if the answer is wrong.
 
 
 CONTACT INFORMATION

 about us, and whether you'd like date or venue order.
