Briefly: Coachellown’d: Vineland Pushed Back
We’ve been closely following the New Jersey Festival Turf War between the promoters of Coachella (All Points West) and ACL/Lollapalooza (Vineland). Well, it appears Vineland folks have blinked. Our favorite scenesterscribe Mike Greenhaus reports that “co-producers Festival Republic and C3 Presents have decided to step back and launch Vineland in 2009.” We guess they ain’t goin’ to tha mattresses.
(Oh, and by the way, this makes me think APW really does have Radiohead…)
Slade Sohmer
In 2006 Slade Sohmer founded Hidden Track along with current EiC Scott Bernstein. Slade ran the site until 2008, establishing a scope of coverage and level of professionalism that still exists today. In 2010 Sohmer founded HyperVocal with Lee Brenner and the "purveyors of the vital and viral" have gone on to create a network of highly acclaimed sites that includes Headlines That Suck, Weeping Elvis, Distriction and Spike The Water Cooler.
