thanks for the update, definitely need to cue up this show.
 
   

Flosstrodamus
 

small typo: Flosstradamus         one thing i'm not digging about the CMJ website is that it gives you zero information about date and venue.  a quick web search turned up nada - if anyone knows when flosstradamus is playing, please share.  they were my biggest surprise at lolla, totally rocked the small mindfield stage.

not all of the shows have been announced. bands are announced ahead of times as to who will be playing at cmj. some places (ie bowery and terminal 5) have announced some of the line-ups. but most shows/venues havent listed who they have playing at cmj. i think knitting factory announced of their nights (at least as far as it being a label show). forgot which label it was.
 
 and im holding off on buying tix till i know who will be playing when. but im bummed i cant see the bsp show. ah well ill catch them at maxwells. stars is the same night.

Wooden Shjips is another band that better swing through here.

its way over 175 already. those were just the artists announced on 9/11 (with some repeated). theres a lot more (if you see the lists above) that were previously named and not on there.

[azaghal1981]

Uhh... CMJ typically has 500+ artists/bands.

I don't know why.

[Vas Deferens]

One of Bay Area's worst. There's a reason they never made it big.  
 
 But, to each his own.

my friends and i are all big fans of them. i really couldnt care less what anyone thinks, but if that music doesnt make you 'shake your ass' (per the song), im not quite sure what would. and i didnt say they were one of the bay area's best bands, just one of my favs.
 
 birdmonster is easily my current favorite out of there. scissors for lefty a close 2nd, and too many other bands to name. its a shame creeper lagoon broke up, i somehow missed seeing them when i had a bunch of opportunities.

whoever came up with the idea of packing this many bands in so few days and over such distances should be shot...
 
 on thursday 10/18, how to chose between:
 
 a) Simian Mobile Disco Plus Crystal Castles
 MUSIC HALL OF WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN, NY
 
 and
 
 b) British Sea Power Plus Pela / 1990s / Tiny Masters of Today/ Stardeath and White Dwarfs / The Grey Race
 Bowery Ballroom, NEW YORK, NY
 
 i've been wanting to see SMD for some time now, but the line-up at the bowery is damn solid too...

uhhh thats why you see the bands whey they are NOT playing at cmj. simian mobile disco was just here this past saturday night. bsp has a bunch of dates (not with that entire lineup).
 
 cmj has a lot to offer. thats why you go and see a bunch of shows at a bunch of venues and pick and choose which artsists you HAVE to see. i think friday ive turned it into 4 different venues and a ton of bands. luckily theyre all within a 1 block radius of each other. I <3 the LES.
