If you want to see every band ever pretty much for free, tell us about who you’d like to see most at CMJ in the comments and make sure to use an actual email address so we can find you.

If Fader is so kind to give me a badge, then I plan to see as many bands as humanly possible for the duration of the festival! Is the Fader fort on again for this year?
The XX for sure and Japanaroids.
I would want to see the Antlers just to find out how well their songs from Hospice translate live.
i want a cMj badge! i’m not the avid concertgoer, I AM the concertgoer! I like the XX and already saw them twice, same with School of Seven Bells. Saw Japandroids and don’t want to lose any more of my hearing to them. Ambulance Ltd., Fanfarlo, Crystal Antlers, Real Estate; been there done that several times. I do want to see XX, Beach Fossils, Mum, Atlas Sound all over again! I’m really excited about the newbies and the ones treading international waters to play! NEON INDIAN! Freelance Whales, Sin Fang Bous, Choir of Young Believers, Javelin, Nathaniel Ratcliff and the Wheel.
I could definitely use that CMJ badge so I can get some good music mileage out of it! Thanks for the chance Fader!
Music:
Jukebox the Ghost, Freelance Whales, Cale Parks, Neon Indian, Ambulance LTD, Bear Hands, Atlas Sound, Holly Miranda, Mumford & Sons, The Temper Trap, The Antlers, Crystal Antlers, Modern Skirts, Delorean, Pomegranates, all the Park the Van artists, The Dig, Emanuel and the Fear
Panels:
But the reason I’d really love a badge is because I’d like to attend some of the panels also. And by some, I mean as many as I can. As a music business professional who’s forced to work independently because of the recession and therefore has no extra money for a badge, it would be a blessing. I’d FLIP to attend Andrew WK’s panel.
Thanks for the opportunity!
Music – Fanfarlo
Film – The Messenger
i NEED to see the xx because i’m kicking myself for missing them when they played so many times about 2 weeks before ATP. also, holly miranda, washed out, fanfarlo and broadcast.
