CLASSICAL INFORMATION
    I stumbled across a WWW page that lets you search for classical
    concerts in the Chicago area.  It's at
    http://andyspc.rh.uchicago.edu/music/concerts.html.

HELP YOUR FELLOW LIST READERS
    If you find any interesting info that would be good for the List,
    please let me know.  The Faith No More date at the World was
    contributed by a reader who found it on the FNM WWW page.

HI MOM!
    My mother gets the Shows List now, ever since the article in the
    Tribune.  Last week she sent me mail asking if I would make a list for
    "old folks like me", since the only name she recognized was Gordon
    Lightfoot.  I can't, but Peter, Paul & Mary ARE on the list twice, and
    there's that Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber thing at the World, too.

BAND NAME OF THE WEEK
    Bongzilla, hands down.

SUBSCRIPTION INFO
    Mail a request to <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>.  Please mention where you
    saw the list, just for my own curiosity.

CORRESPONDENCE
    Send additions, corrections, anything to <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>

The Shows List is updated late every Thursday night.  You can get it over
the Internet in two ways:

    World-Wide Web:     http://www.mcs.net/~alester/
    Mail subscription:  <shows@farpost.chi.il.us>  Ask to be added, and 
                        mention where you found out about the list.

Please mail to shows@farpost.chi.il.us:
    -   New shows you'd like to see added
    -   Any corrections to anything in the list
    -   Subscription requests, or drop requests
    -   Information about other shows list across the country

There are many other shows lists available on the Internet.  As far as I
know, unless the address is "listproc" or "listserv", the list is run by a
human, not an automated list-management program.
