FORT WAYNE, IN, Jun 30, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- (PINKSHEETS: PINR)-
Mike The Pike Productions, Inc. CEO/President, Mark B. Newbauer, proudly
announces the lineup completion for the company's August 29th concert at
Parkview Field in Fort Wayne, Indiana. "We couldn't be happier with this lineup.
We've already gotten ticket requests from across the country, and even a few out
of Canada due to fans' anticipation of Good Charlotte's forthcoming album
release and now we add hot performances from Miley Cyrus' little bro's band,
Metro Station; Cobra Starship, which recently featured Gossip Girl's Leighton
Meester on its 'Good Girls Go Bad' release, and a dance/pop opener from hot up
and comer, Katie Chonacas whose breakout release, SO N2 U, is making a splash on
today's hottest dance floors."
Director of Concert Promotions, Kelsi Velpel says the grouping has a proven
record, "Good Charlotte and Metro Station have performed together several times
together recently with much success, both artistically and financially. To add
Cobra Starship and Katie Chonacas to the mix gives the show additional appeal
and because the artists are excited to be working together, we were able to
assemble a show that was toward collective success. Not to mention the fact that
our venue, Parkview Field, is somewhat an act in and of itself. This is a new
stadium in a progressive city. You'll see people buying tickets for this show
that haven't even heard of these bands simply to experience a concert here. It's
the first mainstream concert to be held at the stadium ever and GM, Mike Nutter,
has been incredible to work with. Both sides see the appeal here in terms of
entertainment and economic development and it's the kind of recipe that makes
Mike The Pike Productions a company to set your sights on."
Flyer distribution, media placement and advertising as well as announcements at
the Stadium will launch next week and Tickets Sales for the event will be
announced in the coming days. "We aim to price this toward profitability for the
company as well as its private investors and its shareholders, but also at a
price that is competitive so that it can be enjoyed by everyone despite current
economic conditions," adds Velpel. Meanwhile, MTP will be working on securing
talent for a second show as Newbauer continues to prepare for casting on the
Motion Picture side of the brand as well as finalization for MTP's much
anticipated literary option.
