"LA LA" STORY

It was a dark and stormy night at L.A.'s Troubadour as Sire/Warner Bros. breakout Bryce Vine, whose show was yet another in a series of sellouts (and whose single "La La Land" is launching at radio), huddled with label brass and listened to the soothing sounds of the rain. Co-Chairman/COO Tom Corson, meanwhile, planned to duck into Tana's for 14 more Slivovitz shots. Seen thinking about how good all this moisture was for their complexions are (l-r) Larry Mattera, Co-Chairman/CEO Aaron Bay-Schuck, VP Marketing TJ Landig, Vine, Sire Prexy Rani Hancock, Corson;and Dir. Artist Development/Touring Billy Smith.
