CENTERSTAGING, MLB PLAY BALL

MLB.com to Feature Rehearsals.com Site and Vice Versa
CenterStaging and Major League Baseball's MLB.com are joining for a double digital play.

The two have formed a strategic partnership to launch the rehearsals.com website. MLB.com has built and will power the company’s showcase for musical artists as they prepare for concert tours, television appearances and recording sessions. In addition to the original streaming performances, the site will provide music news and weekly profiles with musicians discussing their experiences and talent with their original series Lessons from the Legends.

Since its launch in 2001, MLB.com now attracts more than 7 million daily viewers. Both rehearsals.com and MLB.com will offer links to direct their respective traffic to its sister website. Earlier this year, MLB Advanced Media entered into an agreement with music merchandiser, Signatures Network.

CenterStaging’s rehearsals.com presents a unique gateway into the professional artist’s workshop and rehearsal with high-definition streaming video as well as digital audio programming, exclusive performances, candid artist interviews and "intimate lessons from the masters."

Current programming includes The New Cars, debuting their new single, “Not Tonight;” R&B legends Earth, Wind & Fire performing their classic jam “Let’s Groove;” and all-female revue the Pussycat Dolls as they prepare to hit the concert trail. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers 30-year anniversary campaign will also include footage shot at the facility as well The Panic Channel—the new act from Rock Star host Dave Navarro. CenterStaging's 150k sq. ft. Burbank, CA rehearsal and production facility features 11 rehearsal studios, one sound stage, a high-definition broadcast center, thousands of musical instruments and backline equipment.

CenterStaging CEO Roger Paglia took time out from examining Barry Bonds urine samples to note: "We partnered with MLB.com because Bob Bowman and his team have demonstrated an unsurpassed track record in the digital marketplace. They have shown an extraordinary ability to create long-term business and revenue growth through the delivery of streaming video and other advanced forms of online programming and e-commerce."

Added MLB Advanced Media CEO Bowman: "Our partners at rehearsals.com have exceptional facilities and vision. Their reputation in the entertainment industry is terrific, and together we are determined to serve music fans in the same way MLB.com feeds the passion for our national pastime. It's a natural fit. Every rock star wants to be a championship athlete, and vice versa. Getting into business with rehearsals.com demonstrates our belief in the importance of interactive, digital content and nonstop distribution through leading-edge technology."
