I had a similar problem - but Logic stalled on "Initializing Loop Browser" for about 20 seconds.
Here's a possibe solution - IF you've got a backup of Logic 9.0.0 (e.g. on Time Machine).
I found this solution from Alex on the this forum:

Ok here we go I've found an alterntive solution to the "Loop Browser" problem.
If you have a Time Machine Backup of the Program Folder with Logic 9.0.0 or any Logic 9.0.0 flying around that should work:
1) Open Logic 9.0.0 with ctrl+Mousclick, show packages and go to
contents/Frameworks/LogicLoopBrowser.framework/Versiones/A and copy that File "LogicLoopBrowser" to the desktop
2) Open Logic 9.0.2 (the updated version)and go to the same place
contents/Frameworks/LogicLoopBrowser.framework/Versiones/A
3) Replace the file "LogicLoopBrowser" of Logic 9.0.2 with the older "LoopBrowser" file from Logic 9.0.0 you copied to the desktop
Its not necesary to copy the file to the desktop of course. I only put that additional step in between in order to make the instruction better understandable. The point is to replace the new corrupted Logic 9.0.2 Loop Browser File with a working one from the old version. After that Logic 9.0.2 starts quickly again. I hope this is without any side effects (-;

One problem - I couldn't Show Package Contents in Time Machine - I had to right click on the Logic application and restore it to my desktop - then I could Show Package Contents.
