 UPDATES/CORRECTIONS
 -------------------
 The 10/14 KISS show at the Rosemont Horizon is now 10/21.
 
 
 THE DESCENDENTS IN MADISON
 --------------------------
 This isn't in the main listing:  The Descendents are playing the Library
 Mall on the UW-Madison campus on Tuesday, Sep 17 at 6:00pm.  The show is
 free, and also includes Speech and The VibroChamps.
 
 
 GUESS THE REFERENCE
 -------------------
 Yes, yes, last week's was from "Head Over Heels" by Tears For Fears, but
 since I didn't announce the contest that week, I don't think it's fair to
 award prizes.
 
 The one a few weeks ago making reference to Revolting Tones Revue was from
 the back cover of the first Boston album.  I figured it might be too obscure,
 but then again, as winner Rick Somebody-or-other points out, "I find it
 hard to believe that the liner notes from the best selling debut album of
 all time would be considered obscure, but maybe I'm showing my age."  Rick
 was the only one to submit an entry, so wins for that week.  Rick, send me
 your address.
 
 This week, it's back to normal.  I'll take the standard best entry and a
 random winner.  Winners get a fabulous Shows List Dollar.  Send your
 entries to shows@tezcat.com.  Be sure to include your name in the entry so
 I can tell you if you win, as well as band name and song title.
