CYNDI LAUPER TO BE HONORED ON VH-1 SPECIAL

Cyndi Lauper will be honored on Decades Rock Live, the new live concert series on VH1 Classic that will premiere November 18 with an episode honoring Bonnie Raitt and her music.

At the concert, which will be taped November 11 at the Decades Rock Arena (the temporarily-renamed Mark Etess arena) at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, New Jersey, Lauper will be joined by Scott Weiland, Shaggy, Ani DiFranco, The Hooters, and Pat Monahan of Train.

Each one-hour episode will be broadcast in High Definition in 5.1 surround sound, and rebroadcast on a premium HD network in the future. The music performances are augmented with special features, such as "Decades Confidential," exclusive behind-the-scenes interviews with 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 every episode.

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.
