 GUESS THE REFERENCE: WINNERS
     Last week's reference was to "Papa Don't Preach" by Madonna.  Of the 26
     correct entries, none seemed to have much put into them, so this week
     there's no Best Entry winner.  The random winner is Dave Musicant.
     Dave, send me your US Mail address.
 
     Two separate people guessed "You've Got Another Thing Coming" by Judas
     Priest.  They were probably thinking of the first verse that goes "One
     life I'm gonna live it up / I'm takin' flight I said I'll never get
     enough".  I can kinda hear it, even.
 
 GUESS THE REFERENCE: THIS WEEK
     Mail your entries in to shows@tezcat.com.  Please put "Guess" and your
     guess in the subject.  Remember that band name is part of the answer.
     Also, make sure your name is somewhere in the entry.

 RULES FOR GUESS THE REFERENCE:
 
 At the top of the Chicago Shows List each week, a lyrical/literary
 reference appears.  Your job is to figure out what it is, and make an entry.
 
 *   Entries must be mailed to <shows@tezcat.com>, and should contain the
     word "GUESS" at the beginning of the subject line.  Your guess must
     include both title of the song, as well as artist/band.  If it's a
     literary reference, it should contain the title of the work, as well as
     the author's name.
 
 *   There are two ways you can win: Best Entry and Random Correctness.
     *   Best Entry: The best entry to be submitted will win.  It could be
         the funniest, or the most knowledgeable, or whatever.  It's up to
         you.  My decision will be entirely subjective.  Your entry must
         still contain a guess, and I'll weight heavily in favor of those
         who get it right.
 
         If you win Best Entry, I'll reproduce your entry in next week's
         list, so don't put anything in there you don't want published.
         ("This is one of my favorite songs!  I last heard it while cheating
         on my wife...")
 
     *   Random Correctness: I will randomly select an entry from all those
         with correct answers.
 
 *   Only one entry may be made per week.  Deadline for entry is whenever I
     mail out the next week's list.
 
 *   It is possible that no prize will be awarded for a category.  If there
     are no correct answers, then the Random Correctness category will have
     no winner.  If I don't think any entries should win Best Entry, then
     they won't.
 
 *   The prize will always be a genuine Shows List Dollar, mailed by US
     Mail.  It is the winner's responsibility to check the next week's list
     and claim the prize.  If you don't claim it, I don't mail it.
