Vineland Festival In Danger Of Being Canceled

Field Day 2008? Let's hope not! Here's more from The Daily Journal: *Members of a group opposed to the Vineland Music Festival -- including a former City Council president -- are mobilizing the troops to try to block the event. Neighbors Against Rock Concert Site (NARCS) will hold an organizational meeting Jan. 10 at the New Italy Club in East Vineland. Local developer Pete Steenland and his daughter, Joy Marion, said they recently formed the group to let residents opposed to the festival have a unified voice.*

Organizers Behind Reading & Glastonbury Create Vineland

NME reports: *The people behind the Reading, Leeds and Glastonbury festivals have set up a new bash in north America. Festival Republic have teamed up with C3 Presents (who set up the Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits festivals) to create the Vineland Music Festival, which will take place in New Jersey between August 8 and 10 next year. It's promised that The Vineland Music Festival will be a "weekend of pure unadulterated rock'n'roll pleasure; the signature stamp of Reading and Leeds, Austin City Limits and Lollapalooza". The organisers added there will be "a heady mix of the greatest bands in the world, energy charged sets; new rising stars and the freshest acts hitting the stages before the press have had a sniff of them". The bash will take place on a site with acres of "lush, green campgrounds".*

Sounds like Failed Field Day done right!
