The Chicago Shows List
Allright, lemme hear ya... good 'n' loud!
Shows of note as of 09/05/94 (Special end-of-Labor-Day edition)
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
NOTES:
This update to the Shows List is courtesy of the ton of new info I've
received over the weekend, especially Rob Jacob supplying what could be
his own Madison shows list.
Ladies and gentlemen, let's have a moment of silence, or at least
muffled conversation, for Shellac 1st bassman Bob Weston, who tore some
ligaments in his shoulder during postgame shenanigans at Sunday's Pine
Tar .406 extravaganza. The doc gave him some Advil and a sling, and he
should be doing just fine.
