MICHAEL ANGELO BATIO Schedules NAMM Appearance

January 4, 2008

World-renowned guitar speed phenom Michael Angelo Batio (HOLLAND, NITRO) will appear and sign on behalf of Dean Guitars at NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) convention in Anaheim, CA, January 18-21, Hall B booth #5466. Michael will be promoting and demonstrating his new signature guitar, the Dean MAB-1 AF Armorflame. Details regarding the MAB-1 AF will be forthcoming. Fans of Michael Angelo Batio and Dean Guitars can view the 2008 Dean Guitars "Live from NAMM" webcast beginning on January 18 at 12 p.m. CST at www.deanguitars.com.

2007 has been one of the most prolific years ever for guitarist Michael Angelo Batio. MAB toured the world making personal appearances and performing over 100 times throughout 12 different countries. These performances consisted of concerts, clinics for Dean Guitars, as well as performing on behalf of the prestigious National Guitar Workshop and DayJams affiliates. MAB also continued to support his 2005 release of "HWS", or "Hands Without Shadows", throughout his 2007 tour.

As previously announced, MAB will appear in the upcoming Dakota Films Randy Rhoads (OZZY OSBOURNE) documentary directed by Peter Margolis which is slated for a 2008 release. He will also appear in the upcoming film "Cracking the Code: The Secrets of Shred Guitar" produced by Troy Grady. According to Troy, "'Cracking the Code' (is) a documentary of shred technique and not simply a compendium of performance footage. Nor is it a collection of licks demonstrated by masters. It is a unique mechanical investigation that uses slow-motion video to answer the question of how shred technique actually works." "Cracking the Code" will also feature many notable "shred" guitarists, including Steve Morse, Frank Gambale, Albert Lee, Tommy Emmanuel, Joe Stump and footage of Yngwie Malmsteen and Paul Gilbert.
