Subject: An ABC/Soapnet Event for California - HBS and RSW attending!!

ABC DAYTIME AND SOAPNET RETURN AS THE PRESENTING SPONSOR
OF STAGECOACH: CALIFORNIA’S COUNTRY MUSIC FESTIVAL, APRIL 24 & 25

Network Talent, Including Bobbie Eakes, Kassie De Paiva and Laura Wright, to Appear as Part of Weekend’s Festivities

Limited-time Exclusive Opportunity Available for Fans

For the second year in a row, ABC Daytime and SOAPnet have signed on as the presenting sponsor of the 2010 Stagecoach Country Music Festival powered by Toyota. The event, held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, is a part of ABC Daytime and SOAPnet’s Soap Nation Tour, an ongoing initiative to bring the stars to more fans in more cities more often.

As part of the sponsorship, actors from all three award-winning soaps, “All My Children” (AMC), “One Life to Live” (OLTL) and “General Hospital” (GH), will be integrated into the event, introducing musical acts and interacting with fans on the Mane Stage. Throughout the weekend and located in a highly visible location near all the action, concert-goers will have the opportunity to visit a company-branded tent and RV where ABC and SOAPnet will hold autograph sessions, run giveaways and raffles and offer visitors the chance to relax with manicures and massages through the Soap Nation mini-spa. Talent confirmed to attend (subject to change and in alphabetical order) include Bobbie Eakes, Melissa Claire Egan and Vincent Irizarry from “All My Children,” Kristen Alderson, Brandon Buddy, Kassie De Paiva, Hillary B. Smith, Bree Williamson and Robert S. Woods from “One Life to Live,” and Bradford Anderson, Brandon Barash and Laura Wright from “General Hospital.” Go to www.soapnet.com for additional details.

In addition, customers who purchase tickets as of Friday, January 29 via ticketmaster.com with the special code SOAPNATION will receive a bonus of attending a special “meet and greet” event with key soap talent attending the weekend’s festivities. The offer is subject to limited availability and is good only while supplies last.

“After last year’s successful partnership with one of the pre-eminent country music festivals, it was logical for the networks to return to Stagecoach for another year,” said Adam Rockmore, senior vice president, ABC Daytime and SOAPnet Marketing. “With a top-notch slate of music performers coupled with more daytime talent to interact and mingle with our devoted fans, this year promises to be bigger and better.”

Stagecoach continues ABC Daytime and SOAPnet’s winning multi-faceted music strategy. Seen as a key promotional platform and a way to reach highly engaged women, the networks have the ability to connect their dedicated audience with new music. The initiative includes sponsoring tours, integrated in-show performances and promoting new songs in on and off air–marketing campaigns.

STAGECOACH: California’s Country Music Festival features a mix of artists from the genres of mainstream country, bluegrass, folk, roots rock and alt-country performing on multiple stages. The now critically acclaimed gathering also includes a variety of activities, including a leading BBQ competition and expanded camping area with amenities exclusive to campers. This year’s lineup features some of
the top talent in the country music world today, including Keith Urban, Toby Keith, Brooks & Dunn and Sugarland. To view the full artist lineup, a complete breakdown of available ticketing and onsite camping/RV options, please visit www.Stagecoachfestival.com.

Annually producing over 1000 hours of original programming, ABC Daytime consists of “The View,” “All My Children,” “One Life to Live” and “General Hospital,” and consistently ranks as one of the top lineups among the key demographic of Women 18-49. In addition, “General Hospital” – celebrating 12,000 episodes this February – holds the record of 10 Daytime Emmys for Outstanding Drama, “All My Children” marked its 40th anniversary earlier this month and “One Life to Live” received five Daytime Emmys in 2009.
SOAPnet owns the world of character-driven soapy drama, from daytime and primetime dramas to reality shows and movies. The network features same-day episodes of popular daytime dramas including “All My Children,” “Days of our Lives,” “One Life to Live,” “General Hospital” and “The Young and the Restless”; favorite primetime series “The Gilmore Girls,” “The O.C.,” “One Tree Hill” and “Beverly Hills 90210”; and original programs including “Being Erica.” Wrapped in a 24-hour environment, SOAPnet is the one destination for stories focused on real emotions and revealing truths about intriguing yet flawed characters.

It's nice to see them invited to these types of events again. It seems like they usually include the younger ones instead.

Does anybody know what days HBS &RSW will be there. I would really like to attend, I've never seen Hillary in person yet. I saw RSW at the Soap Opera Digest awards in 1999.

I don't think any events planned for that weekend will be out as a schedule just yet. I would say maybe the end of March some sort of schedule as to what the stars agendas will be for what days might be up at the Soap Nation site. But if you are interested in going you would have to check back later at the Soap Nation site and see if anything is up for Hillary and Bob. Any event I have ever gone to I have looked up any info that I would need to know from the site where the event was happening.

Too costly for me to go to CA for where it's located right now. Have no idea about NY yet.

I know what u mean. I live here in California, I was just thinking about the fact that I couldn't make the luncheon bacause it was in New York, hoping that they would throw something here in Calfornia for the fans that are here on the West Coast. The tickets are a little pricey for me too, but I really want to see Hillary & Robert in person. The funny thing is I don't really listen to alot of country music, I just want to see them so I'm going to go.

I am also in California and I would LOVE to go to this.....who if anyone from this board is planning on going to this event?

[> [> Jan -- Bina, Mon, Jan 25 - 6:36:13pm

I plan on attending, but to try meet the January 29, 2010 deadline for VIP would be impossible for me. I think I am going to continue to check the website to see when Hillary & Robert are going to be there and then purchase my tickets then. If at all possible can u email me at ba_bgrl07@yahoo.com and keep me posted when you purchase your tickets.

I would love to go I haven't been to any of the OLTL events, since they are usually in NY and I'm in Texas. To bad the news didn't break sooner I could have gone but I have already made plans for the big vacation with tickets and hotel already purchased, I guess I will just have to make do with Hawaii and seeing them on the dvr.
Whoever goes I hope you have fun and take lost of pics.
