~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The reverse side of the page has some upcoming club listings, it was a really busy week. Appearing were; The Jesus and Mary Chain with The Shadowy Men and Neon Rome at RPM and the Cult at the Concert Hall (I could only afford to go to one of those and I chose the Mary Chain. I remember that gig, I imagine the police do too). Gang Green at Starwood, Anthrax and Sacrifice at Rock & Roll Heaven for $7 (Holy Shit! Really?), Razor at Larry's, Platinum Blonde & the Arrows at MLG, and The Slam w/Charlie Brown's Wang at DMZ. It was a great week for Blues too with Etta James at Albert's Hall, Roy Buchanan at the El Mocambo and Matt Guitar Murphy at The Bam Boo. Also playing were Midge Ure from Ultavox at The Copa (that club is now a parking lot) the Shuffle Demons at The Hotel Isabella, the Arrows at The Diamond, The Rick Santers Band at The Diamond, The Wholigans and Everest at Rock & Roll Heaven, at the Gasworks; Vigilants & the White.
