Hope Liz is okay. I wonder if ticket sales were low.

But what a relief, I already hotel and everything paid for to see Liz in Chicago. - -----Original Message----- From: owner-support-system@smoe.org [mailto:owner-support-system@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Katie Brown Sent: Friday, July 30, 2004 2:13 PM To: support-system@smoe.org Subject: [support-system] CWA tour cancelled I guess this has probably already been discussed on the list at some point, but at least the two Chicagoi shows have been cancelled.

Paul, yes it was. It was the episode where Homer joined the Lalapalooza show as the freak show guy who gets cannons shot at his stomach. Smashing Pumpkins did a guest stint. Funny thing is, that episode was just on in Chicago this past week! - -----Original Message----- Date: Thu, 29 Jul 2004 07:28:53 +0100 From: "Paul Spinks" Subject: [support-system] RE: Happy debut albums?
