Pat and Neil on Oprah
Here's a message from Pat & Neil about the Oprah appearance:
|
Hey everybody!
As you may have heard, we were recently in Chicago taping an appearance on Oprah! It was great seeing old friends like Sheryl Crow, Joan Jett, and Stevie Nicks. Salt-n-Pepa and Sister Sledge were amazing, and it was so nice to meet Miley Cyrus and Avril Lavigne. It's really wonderful to see the empowered, young female artists of today in action!
The staff and crew on the show were incredible, and a real pleasure to work with. And of course, Oprah is as genuine, inspiring, and funny as you all think! It was exciting to help honor her in her last season, and so nice spending time talking after the show.
While we were there, we also did some taping for Oprah's "Behind the Scenes" show on the OWN Network. So keep your eyes open for that to catch some candid, crazy moments before and after the actual taping!
The episode airs on April 13th! It's coming up, so set your Tivos! Check your local listings...
XO Pat & Spyder

To All of Our Australian Fans:
From the bottom of hearts, we'd like to thank you for your unbelievable support on our recent Australian tour. We had such an amazing time exploring your beautiful country and getting to play for you every night. While we were there, we had the pleasure of seeing the musical, Hairspray, held koalas, and met some of the kindest, dearest people ever. Our only regret is that we let fifteen years go by in between our Australian tours. We will not let that happen again!
We would like to extend a special "thanks" to the Bangles and their crew, as well as our fantastic Australian touring crew!
We hope to see you all again soon.
With Peace and Love, Keep Rockin!
Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo

CMT Crossroads
Here's the RCA announcement on Pat and Neil's appearance with Martina McBride on Crossroads:
Nashville, TN - The pairing of country superstar Martina McBride and legendary rocker Pat Benatar proved to be a popular one on CMT last weekend as the numbers from the show's debut roll in. The "CMT Crossroads" episode featuring Martina and the leather-clad 80's rock icon became the show's third highest debut in its history last Friday night (12/12) behind the Kid Rock/Hank Jr. and Dixie Chicks/James Taylor pairings. The show also did extremely well in the coveted 18-49 demo.
