I've never been to a CMJ show - is purchase of a CMJ badge required for the shows or are there tickets available for each individual show?

Sounds like a hot lineup though, might be worth a badge purchase anyway.

badges are hundreds of dollars. you don't need one to attend shows - just buy advanced tickets to everything you want to see (or show up early to shows with no advanced).
