Entertainment Boulevard to Sponsor the First in the OnStage Series that Combines Concerts and Custom Music Products NEW YORK, Dec. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Music Choice, the world's largest provider of commercial-free digital music, today announced that the first in its Music Choice OnStage series for 2000 will feature Mary Chapin Carpenter. Entertainment Boulevard (OTC Bulletin Board: EBLD), host of entertainment-oriented streaming content programming through its Web site at entertainmentblvd.com, has signed as the sponsor of the premiere program. As part of the upcoming OnStage series, Mary Chapin Carpenter will perform live at the 9:30 club in Washington D.C. on December 7th. The concert will be webcast live and available on the Music Choice Web site (http://www.musicchoice.com), the Web site of Sony Music, Carpenter's label and on Entertainment Boulevard's site. The subsequent video broadcast of the concert will air from December 19, 1999 through January 22, 2000 in cable systems across the U.S. In addition, two exclusive audio programs will air on the Music Choice service in December and January. Entertainment Boulevard will be cited as the sponsor on all related programs. "Sponsorship of Music Choice OnStage will enable us to promote the benefits of our online site to millions of music fans," said Stephen Brown, President and CEO of Entertainment Boulevard. "The music event tied to the unique combination of video, audio, and online promotional elements is perfectly suited to our overall entertainment branding message." The multi-level promotional package that Music Choice produces for consumer brands includes any combination of the following: -- NEW -- Music Choice OnStage programming sponsorship of video broadcast of major artist concert reaching 15 million homes via cable -- Sponsorship of customized audio music show broadcast reaching more than 10 million Music Choice subscribers -- Customized online streaming audio Music Choice channel accessible via the sponsor's Web site and musicchoice.com -- Online digital downloads and webcasts -- Online marketing of sponsored events including emails and banner ads "There's no other company out there that offers a turnkey multi-media music promotional program like Music Choice," explains Dave Del Beccaro, President and CEO of Music Choice. "The addition of Music Choice OnStage to our sponsorship package provides companies with another great tool to extend their brand using music to a widespread yet targeted audience." Recently, Music Choice proved the effectiveness of this type of promotional package when Arista Records sponsored a video broadcast of a Kenny G concert performance along with two custom audio shows. In addition, Music Choice promoted the show on its Showcase I channel and with banner ads and targeted emails. The video broadcast earned Nielsen ratings as high as 4.0 in New York City and Philadelphia areas and the multi-level model helped Arista reach several different audiences and drove new sales of Kenny G's album. Incremental audiences and product sales are two of the major benefits for companies that utilize Music Choice promotional packages. Senior vice president of Arista Records, Ken Levy lauded the introduction of the Music Choice OnStage package, "I believe in the power of a Music Choice promotional package. I have no doubt the program Arista did with Music Choice is one of the reasons why the Kenny G album Classics in the Key of G went platinum."
