            <title>Active Investment Opportunities</title>
            <link>http://www.idpbg.net/active-blog/active-investment-opportunities</link>
            <description>&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;  
&lt;P style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot; align=center&gt;THE PURPOSE&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt; 
&lt;P style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot; align=center&gt;The purpose of &lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;Future Legends USA&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT size=1&gt;&lt;FONT size=1&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;TM&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/B&gt;is to find &lt;BR&gt;and promote the legend bands of the future and &lt;BR&gt;provide the mechanism to give them immediate &lt;BR&gt;national exposure through television. We will &lt;BR&gt;discover and produce twelve bands that are&lt;BR&gt;ready to take on the world. These bands will have:&lt;/P&gt; 
&lt;P style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot; align=center&gt;Signature Original songs&lt;/P&gt;&lt;FONT&gt; 
&lt;P style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot; align=center&gt;World Class Musicianship&lt;BR&gt;Uniqueness&lt;BR&gt;Charisma&lt;BR&gt;Unstoppable drive&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot; align=center&gt;This combined with legendary music talent &lt;BR&gt;that will perform on each television episode &lt;BR&gt;will provide the viewing public with an&lt;BR&gt;unforgettable entertainment experience.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;THE PREMISE&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;In past decades, legend bands had a profound &lt;BR&gt;effect on American society and touched millions &lt;BR&gt;of fans, who remember every lyric and guitar lick &lt;BR&gt;of their favorite songs to this day. Those bands &lt;BR&gt;continue to influence new generations as well,&lt;BR&gt;and are an inspiration for future legend bands &lt;BR&gt;that already show signs of starquality, and have &lt;BR&gt;something to say musically, lyrically and culturally.&lt;BR&gt;Who knows who the next Led Zeppelin, Santana, &lt;BR&gt;Doors, or Alabama might be?&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;&lt;/P&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;WHAT IS UNIQUE ABOUT THIS PROJECT&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;Cross-generational&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;TThe beauty of the&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;Future Legends USA &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT size=1 face=Arial&gt;&lt;FONT size=1 face=Arial&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;TM&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;concept is that it is &lt;BR&gt;crossgenerational, creating excitement among&lt;BR&gt;the very young all the way through the baby &lt;BR&gt;boomer generation. There are great bands out &lt;BR&gt;there right now, across all walks of life and society, &lt;BR&gt;who have built their futures on the music of their &lt;BR&gt;own parents, and even grandparents and applied&lt;BR&gt;these time tested sounds to their own musical &lt;BR&gt;creativity. That’s the kind of staying power great &lt;BR&gt;music has!&lt;/P&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;There are young (in some cases very, very young) &lt;BR&gt;bands that are truly gifted, committed and innovative. &lt;BR&gt;We intend to discover them, put them in front of a &lt;BR&gt;national television audience, and have them share the &lt;BR&gt;stage with the world’s great music legends. That means &lt;BR&gt;that the show also has strong appeal for the huge &lt;BR&gt;population of “boomers” (now with discretionary time and &lt;BR&gt;money) who grew up with the performers who built popular &lt;BR&gt;music, and who still love it. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;There’s a good reason for that: &lt;BR&gt;The music of that generation was extraordinary – a &lt;BR&gt;renaissance of sorts – rich in variety, substance, and &lt;BR&gt;totally tuned in to the culture of its day.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;Cross-genre&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;Recognizing the diversity of our American musical &lt;BR&gt;heritage (and that typifies popular music today) we &lt;BR&gt;are looking for exceptional bands, from all walks of &lt;BR&gt;American life, regardless of the type of music they &lt;BR&gt;perform.&amp;nbsp; Our goal is to bring the true talent into the &lt;BR&gt;spotlight and give them the opportunity to show &lt;BR&gt;America how they can perform. This creates a much&lt;BR&gt;broader audience, and fuels a lively and fun competitive &lt;BR&gt;spirit among supporters of many kinds of music.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;Discovery, not competition&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;This isn’t a gimmick, it’s not about the judges, and it’s &lt;BR&gt;not about competition. This is about the bands themselves, &lt;BR&gt;chosen by music professionals, who know just how good &lt;BR&gt;you have to be to make it to the top. This project is about &lt;BR&gt;taking the music and the musicians seriously, and providing &lt;BR&gt;truly memorable entertainment that could launch the next &lt;BR&gt;generation of legend bands.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;AND THERE IS MORE&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;Future Legends USA is about the bands. Future Legends USA &lt;BR&gt;is also about a completely rounded form of television entertainment. &lt;BR&gt;Along with the discovery of the legend bands of the future, this &lt;BR&gt;program will feature the showcasing of legend bands of the past, &lt;BR&gt;guest appearances by worldwide notables and entertainers, and a &lt;BR&gt;special feature in support of a very well known and deserving &lt;BR&gt;charitable organization. Additionally, Future Legends USA will utilize &lt;BR&gt;a special feature where legend entertainers from previous years who &lt;BR&gt;have passed away will be reunited with the surviving members of their &lt;BR&gt;original band and the viewing audience will once again have the &lt;BR&gt;opportunity to enjoy the signature talent that took these bands to &lt;BR&gt;greatness.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;THE CONCEPT IS TESTED&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;We are confident that the interest is there. Our Website test &lt;BR&gt;pulled 68,000 hits per day by the fourth day. Web (and mobile Web) &lt;BR&gt;presence is a key marketing tool, but we believe it should be paired &lt;BR&gt;with radio, television, mobile media, street and word-of-mouth &lt;BR&gt;campaigns to create the environment for a tipping point to occur. &lt;BR&gt;With multiple revenue streams built into the plan, there is a solid &lt;BR&gt;foundation for financial success.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;&lt;FONT style=&quot;COLOR: #d0d0d0&quot;&gt;THE PROJECT IS READY&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt; 
&lt;P align=left&gt;This is not a concept but a project that is ready – 24 months of&lt;BR&gt;work has already been applied to the development. In short, we &lt;BR&gt;have a unique project, a well thought-out plan, the expertise, and &lt;BR&gt;a deep commitment to do the work necessary to see this project &lt;BR&gt;through.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;</description>
