As previously reported, VH1 Classic and World Productions

present the third installment of Decades Rock Live, an innovative live concert series that features performances by celebrated artists from rock to soul who have influenced popular music over the last 50 years, as well as performances from some of today's hottest recording acts who have been inspired by these legends. The concert honoring HEART is set to premiere on VH1 Classic on Friday, May 5 at 8:00 PM ET/PT and will feature special

guests including ALICE IN CHAINS, PHIL ANSELMO (ex-PANTERA, SUPERJOINT RITUAL) and Dave Navarro (ex-JANE'S ADDICTION)

Highlights for the Heart tribute include Alice in Chains reuniting for the first time in ten years with William Duvall (AIC's new singer; also COMES WITH THE FALL) and Phil Anselmo on vocals.

The music performances are augmented with special features, such as Decades Confidential, exclusive behind-the-scenes interviews with the spotlighted artists focusing on their career milestones and highlighting their newest releases, concert performances and other endeavors. Decades Rock Live segments will also include Fan Factoids from viewers sharing their knowledge of music facts and figures, incorporated as pop-up quotes and trivia in each episode.

Decades Rock Live is taped at Trump Taj Mahal's high definition television studio, The Decades Rock Arena (temporarily renamed from Mark Etess Arena for the duration of the series run), in Atlantic City, NJ. Each episode focuses on a specific artist. The series will be broadcast in High

Definition in 5.1 surround sound, and rebroadcast on a premium HD network at a later date.

Fans will also have the chance to get their hands on exclusive memorabilia and special items from the artists scheduled to participate in the series. Both the Guitar Center Music Foundation and the Grammy Foundation will work with the show to host silent auctions. The proceeds raised will support the philanthropic missions of each of those

organizations.
