THE TEXAS SHOW LIST
-------------------
vol 3,no 7: October 4,1996
This is a list of upcoming punk, garage, hardcore, indie rock, ska
and experimental shows in Texas and the surrounding states. If you know of
others, please let us know. Also, if you have a show that doesn't fit into
the above categories, send it anyway and we'll try to fit it in somewhere.
This list is not perfect, mistakes are bound to happen. I would suggest
calling before making a road trip for a show. Suggestions appreciated.
If you would like to subscribe via email...let me know. And please
specify that you want the "Texas show list".
