CMJ 2k7: Initial Lineup Announced

This year's CMJ Music Marathon goes down from October 16th - 20th in NYC. As always, I'll be there, but the initial list of performers has left me a little lukewarm. Don't get me wrong, there are several bands here that I am psyched to see, but some of the big headliners [like Spoon & Mates of State] are boring.

As always, I'll be covering the fest before, during and after, and once more bands and schedules are announced, I'll get them up.

Confirmed to appear:
Spoon
UNKLE
Justice
British Sea Power
Mates Of State
Coheed And Cambria
