There's a war brewing in Portland, Maine. A war of event marketing companies. (Hey, I didn't say it'd be a interesting war).

The Portland Press Herald just ran this article (Dead Link) about emg3, who were the main competitors of the last company I worked for in Portland, Pierce Promotions.

Even if you don't care about Portland, event marketing or retailtainment this article is a wonderful case study into the bad-blood that can arise in business.

(And for the record, I'm not taking sides in this war. I want my employment pool to be as large as possible when we move back to Maine in July ...)
