ML’s Guide to the CMJ Music Marathon 2008.
CMJ (College Music Journal) puts on an annual festival in New York that consists of a ton of concerts at a bunch of different venues over the course of about a week . The list of artists performing is a tad overwhelming, so I sorted through the madness and picked out some of the shows that I would (and might) attend. There are some pretty incredible looking shows. Check it out and buy me tickets after the jump.

Big ups for this.
I would think they would make most of these on different days. But everything is basically Tuesday. Strange.
