EV2BK’s CMJ 2010 Selections – Tuesday, October 19

Well it’s that time of year again when the CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival takes over downtown NYC and Brooklyn for a week of official showcases and boatloads more unofficial parties/DJ sets/booze giveaways featuring around 1,200 bands from all over the country and world. It’s always kind of a headache figuring out which shows to go to, so we wanted to offer up a hand-picked selection of shows for each of the five official days of the marathon (starting today, October 19, and running through Saturday, October 23).
