Stark's Guide to CMJ 2010: Top 10 Do's and Don'ts
What say you!? Oh. Sorry. No. You're welcome. We will gladly clog your Google Reader with more CMJ fodder. While others are here to present the facts about CMJ 2010, we are here to wax philosophic. We are here to tell you about the security of your shit. We at Stark, are mere good samaritans, looking out for you! (to be read with Uncle Sam accent.) So, we present to you, the Stark-supported, Top 10 Do's and Don'ts of CMJ 2010:
10. DO Check out the Syndicate's "Conflict of Interest" CMJ opening party @ Rebel. Swag + free booze + Monday night = smart Tuesday morning.
9. DON'T Leave home without a game plan. In most cases you will stumble into a situation you are uncomfortable with -- like an orgy, a Lez Zepplin show, or maybe even a Beets concert.
8. DO Rely heavily upon street meat because drinking on an empty stomach means too much fun, with too little reward and too few sexual indiscretions. CMJ is like VE day!
7. DON"T Go anywhere if it is raining. See CMJ 2009. #Fail.
6. DO Check out the Pop Tarts Suck Toasted day parties @ Cake Shop on 10/22 and 10/23 + i Rock i Roll's day party @ The Delancey on 10/23 / Matt from A Heart is a Spade DJing!
Check out the TOP 5 after the jump plus the full CMJ 2010 line up!

TOP 5!
5. DON'T Take off work too much because when you come in the next day and say, "All I saw yesterday was a ton of BBQ, side boob, jorts and PBR" you look like a dick.
4. DO check out the FIXED Party @ Public Assembly on 10/23 + the American Myth Showcase @ Piano's on 10/20
3. DON'T Flop your credentials around like a big swinging wang -- act like you've been there before.
2. DO check out the ASCAP Showcase @ the Canal Room on 10/20 + the BMI Showcase @ Bar Matchless on 10/20 + Deli Mag Showcases on 10/19, 10/20, 10/21 and 10/23.
1. DON'T forget your scarves and pipes you bastards. Lookin' at you, you well-quaffed Dutchmen. See you on the streets! Bring it.
