CMJ 2007 Initial Lineup

Hope you saved up on sick days! NYC's indie-loving October fest has an initial list of confirmed acts, including Spoon, No Age, Marnie Stern, Simian Mobile Disco, Devin the Dude, Justice, Xiu Xiu, and 26 other groups of people that play music. Of course this is just 33 of an expected 33,000, so there shall be more lineupdates, and we're sure to check in with the CMJ developments now and again. So grab your frequent flier miles and be sure to shirk all responsibility from 10/16-10/20, and start getting rest fo the day parties/after parties 'cause that's when the magic (and free booze) happens. Jump for the confirmed 33.

I'd go for Spoon and UNKLE and maybe Justice. Otherwise, this list is shockingly wanting.
