CMJ 2005 Final Schedule for Deli Marathon

A heartfelt thank you to the polite and encouraging ladies and gentlemen who emailed us with creative reasons The Deli should come and hear their bands. We agreed with all of you. Because we still can’t figure out cloning at The Deli headquarters, I am unable to be at all your shows at once. If you are not on this schedule, and you haven’t already, please send your CD/press kit to The Deli Magazine so we can consider you for future issues. The Deli Magazine loves all of you!

Signed,
Your busily bee-ing indie pixie,

Marie Helene
