The Easys Play That Place in the River Market
A book cover seems appropriate here since tonight we are playing with The High Strung, a band famous for touring Michigan libraries last summer.
Also I thought the American Princes were suppossed to be sharing the bill but I'm not finding any information about this. Who started this rumor? Come on. . . Own up. . . you scoundrel. I think it must have been someone from the local babysitter's union, spreading tall tales that Wednesday would be a three band bill so all of us would schedule sitters for a long winters night. . . of ROCK!
Anyway, here's a link to Sticky ______ site (underscored because I refuse to type "Fingers" with a "z" instead of an "s" anymore).

When we decide to rise up and demand the wages that the sitters of this fair city have deserved, lo, these long and arduous years, you shall know it full well.
I tell you this, just because we have convinced some Little Rock residents that the American Princes would perform this evening at your "chicken shack," do not be fooled. There are many tactics at our disposal which you are obviously unaware of. Things such as:
- total devastation of the diaper industry
- asparagus scented baby wipes
- required weekly teacher conferencing
- Brinks Home Security's Babysitter Panic Button
(which alerts the venue over the PA when your
sitter has "had enough" - flashing a photo of
you and your wife with "RED ALERT" on a screen)
- Ad placement in every major newspaper in America
which scientifically links parents who don't
forcibly administer cod-liver-oil to their kids
with marked increase in gang violence
- Loudspeakers playing ice-cream-truck music on
your street at 10:00 pm on school nights.
- etc.
Sir, as you can see, we are well prepared to deal with these accusations. Do not force us to resort to such methods as would permanently alter the laws of supply and demand - and the cost effectiveness of your babysitting expenditures.
Sincerely,
P.Wee Sits
Chairperson, Babysitters Local 151

DAMN I LOVE ME SOME R.E.M. DOCUMENT!

Thanks for addressing this whole "Z" matter. I've been having the same problem. Over & Over.
Ciao,
