Gorilla Vs. Bear is a relevant mp3 blog. Apparently they organized some sort of 'music festival.' I know that 'SXSW showcases' and 'promoting concerts' is something that blogspots do, but I haven't really heard of a 'music fest' curated by a blog, unless u count Pitchfork as a 'music blog' and not a 'lifestyle content farm.'

Feeling a lot of pressure, like I need to plan a 'music festival' and then get a sponsored livestream and try to make some $$$.

We’re beyond psyched to announce that we’re teaming up with our good friends at Dallas’ historic Granada Theater this summer to throw the first ever Gorilla vs. Bear Festival, on the evening of Saturday, July 23. The inaugural lineup couldn’t be much more representative of the inspiration and history behind this blog, as it features our current favorite band (White Denim), the newest endeavor of one of my favorite rappers of all-time, and the creator of the best album of 2011 to date (Shabazz Palaces), the debut of the new project from a Dallas icon and founder of one of the most beloved bands in the history of our hometown, and much more. The bill is rounded out by a few of our favorite — and most posted about — artists that are currently making music: Julianna Barwick, Grimes (who’ll be coming off a stint opening for Lykke Li’s current North American tour), Sleep ∞ Over, Pure X, Sunset, and Dreamed, with DJ sets coming between bands from Dallas’ own Sober.

Do music festivals 'make more $$' than blogs?
Will every blog start a 'music festival'?
Does every city deserve to have a music festival with 10+ relevant buzzbands?
Do u still read GVB, or has it 'gone down the shitter'?
Has GVB 'lost itz authentic buzz cred' because of their record label and music festival?
Remember when ppl used to make a big deal about 'losing trust' with mp3 blogs that 'had an agenda'?
Have music blogs 'finally made it'?
