CMJ Week

So, as many of you probably know I am an entertainment business student who may want to work in the music industry come graduation. Anyways, for the past few years NYU has provided me with free passes to the CMJ festival, which is always a total blast. This past week has been insane because I literally go to work, go to class, then go to shows. Jam-packed days! I can't complain, though. Here is who I have seen or will get to see this week (among others):

Reni Lane
Little Fish
Atlas Sound
Midnight Juggernauts
Busta Rhymes
Stephen Marley
Katie Costello
The Clipse
A Million Years
Nada Surf
Ted Leo + The Pharmacists

If I get a chance I will definitely post some reviews of things I have seen or will see. I will probably write a little bit about Atlas Sound (which kind of had an Animal Collective vibe just minus the crazy energy) and the Midnight Juggernauts (one of my favorite bands).


I'm having an awesome week so far, though. If I don't update my blog as much its probably because I am having fun with the festival and am too preoccupied to do work! Any suggestions of shows I should go to please let me know. I'm always up for new music and good times.
