CMJ SHOWS OF NOTE -- It's that time of year again: snotty-nosed hipster college radio programmers from across the U.S. migrate to NYC for CMJ ...and a handful of label scouts and A&R execs (all four of them that are left!) are right there next to them... We figured we'd make a little list of shows to check out -- a couple of unsigned artists, a couple of established acts. You gotta mix it up!
