Wow, CMJ Time Already?

No, you didn't pull a Rip Van Winkle - CMJ really was just a month ago, but it's time to start talking about 2009 already. The dates are set, so mark your calendars for Oct 20 - 24, 2009. (I know, I don't have a calendar yet, either.) Also, registration and artist submissions are now open. Register before December 19 and pay only $275 for your badge, and if you're a musician hoping to score a showcase, you can submit your music for a reduced rate of $20 before November 25 (this deal is only available via Sonicbids).
