NBC Dropped The Ball

06/14/05
. (BW&BK) It was reported last week that NIGHT RANGER were scheduled to appear on NBC's new program, Hit Me Baby, One More Time, but had since pulled out of the program....guitarist Jeff Watson... has issued a detailed reply on the situation and told MelodicRock.com.... Night Ranger was slated to appear on Hit Me Baby One More Time on NBC, and we had already interrupted our recording schedule to record and turn in to NBC the edited TV track of �Sister Christian'. We also spent an entire day filming interviews and background video material to be used on the show. What precluded us from being able to do the show at that time was that, as you know, the bands need to pick a second recent hit song by someone else to perform and we were without a second song. We chose and re-chose, and submitted and resubmitted 7 to 10 songs to perform (from a list and guideline of songs provided us) that NBC couldn't get cleared to use. (all songs have to be cleared for use on Television, Film, etc.,. by the composer and publisher). [see full story for the full statement] - Click here for the Full Story
