Your Guide To Free Booze at CMJ 2011

CMJ is finally here, and with it brings our annual guide to free boozing. You gotta love how far some of these hosts go to convince you to come. You see, almost all the free booze events are the smaller, "neffed the f- out," headscratch "who?" type shows where the music itself isn't enough to bring a crowd of any size. Most of these presenters are well aware of how average their particular bands are. They know the deal. How to convince someone to see a crappy band? Same way most of us get laid - alcohol!

Peep the quality Google Calendar technology below. Notice how we've color-coded each entry depending on type of booze. Yellow for free beer events. Green for hard alcohol sponsored events. Blue for a mixture of both, or an unspecified open bar. Red for BAL events that we squeezed in. Click on each entry to load more details like where the event is located, or how to RSVP. You can even subscribe to this calendar on your Android/iPhone and get alerts as you get wrecked. What less do you expect from BAL? Oh yeah, a beastly 4 band rock showcase (open bar from 8-9 PBR + well) Wednesday and a dubiously dicey 8 band loft party on Saturday.

Tito's is a Vodka made in Austin Texas, and it is distilled 6 times, and is awesome.
