Hey S&A,

If you haven't heard, Sara will be making a guest appearance on
tonight's episode (04/04) of Nashville Star, the nation's top-rated
country music series! The hit talent search is in its fourth
season, airing Tuesdays at 10:00 PM ET/9:00 PM CT on the USA
Network. Watch for Sara to do opening and closing performances on
this evening's show.

I'm also pleased to be working with some of USA's marketing people
again this year to have a Nashville Star prize pack giveaway! Last
year, Grant & Karen won the prize pictured below for their winning
entries in our first N.Star contest:

This time, we've been promised two Nashville Star t-shirts AND a
little something extra.....an autographed Wynonna Judd t-shirt! And
all three shirts are being given away to one winner in this week's
contest. For info on how to enter, just visit the S&A forum at:

As it mentions, all participants must submit TWO possible tour names
for Sara's first-ever headlining tour which is coming up in the
Fall. The reasoning behind two entries per person is that it will
help break any ties for replica submissions. Entries can be e-
mailed to contest@.... I'll reply to each message to
confirm receipt of your entry. You have until this Friday (04/07)
to submit your two ideas for a tour name. The panel of 5 judges
will vote for their favorite tour names from the pool of entries,
and the person who submits the highest-scoring pair of tour names
wins. The judges will base their decisions on relevance to Sara's
music, creativity, and the must-see appeal it generates. In other
words, when someone hears the name of the tour, do they immediately
A) think of Sara; B) smile at the originality of it; and C) want to
jump on board by attending the show?

This is not an official contest of Sara or her representatives.
It's just a fun contest, with a chance at winning some memorabilia,
and an attempt at drawing attention to such a big milestone in
Sara's career as she plans to launch her own tour! And, it's open
to everyone, whether you've ever posted on the Saints & Angels forum
or not. :)
