	Live Show: 10/25/97
		The headline act (Moxy Fruvous, in case you misplaced your scorecard this late in the game) took the stage with the same heavenly a cappella version of "I've Gotta Get A Message To You" that had begun their earlier show at McNally Robinson.
		(McNally is kind of a less imperalistic, all-consuming B&N type store.) And it took me all of four minutes to find out where Cecil Adams' books were kept, and make a beeline for---
		They wasted no time making sure that the folks in the audience got to hear something a little off the beaten track, either, by going straight to "Poor Mary Lane" (which, despite being IMHO a little strident on the record, becomes very powerful indeed live) and the haunting "On Her Doorstep".
