The Renewable Hydrogen Roadshow - Debuting June 12-13 at Santa Rosa

EarthDance: The Global Festival for Peace, Now in Its 8th Landmark Year, is the World's Largest Synchronized Music and Lifestyle Event

LOS ANGELES, June 10 -- SHOW -- The Renewable Hydrogen Roadshow -- was conceived by hydrogen energy pioneer Stuart Energy as a powerful means through which to promote sustainable living practices and environmental awareness to the general public within the context of a larger cultural and world/conscious music experience. This visionary, "edu-tainment-oriented" "Festival Within A Festival" launches its inaugural 2004 California tour at the 26th annual Health & Harmony Festival at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, in Santa Rosa, CA, June 12-13.

Stuart Energy has just announced that it has enlisted EarthDance: The Global Festival For Peace -- the world's largest synchronized dance and music event -- to produce the entertainment portion of SHOW's forward-thinking program. The EarthDance team will oversee all entertainment related components inside the remarkable, 60'-diameter Stuart Energy-sponsored Eco-Dome, outfitted with an internal stage and surrounding multi-media exhibit area, that will travel with SHOW throughout.

Founded by Chris Dekker in 1997, EarthDance has been called "the Live Aid for new millennium." The 8th annual occurrence of this 24-hour international celebration takes place September 18, 2004, and will bring together over 200,000 people in more than 130 cities and 50 nations. The event is capped by the Prayer For Peace, a globally simultaneous moment of music and meditation, and EarthDance's overarching mission is to unite world communities in support of non-profit humanitarian, environmental and peace-related causes, and foster a spirit of peace and harmony (www.earthdance.org).

Dekker commented, "We are thrilled to be asked to work with SHOW and contribute to spreading the word about sustainable energy initiatives. Environmental concerns have been a growing part of EarthDance's overall focus, so from our perspective, it's a perfect fit."

Also in sync is EarthDance's signature brand of electronica and world music-aligned artistry, an ideal complement to the series of conscious festivals that SHOW will be a part of this summer. In addition to sourcing DJs and musical acts to perform on the Eco-Dome stage, Dekker will engage new age scientists and a variety of other new paradigm and environmentally activist speakers to participate in SHOW. The EarthDance team will also implement the sound system, and provide stage services, ambience, and decor for all SHOW presentations. This weekend on the Eco-Dome stage at Health & Harmony, singer-songwriter Tracy Lyons -- a northern Californian with Celtic roots who will perform at every SHOW festival -- debuts her new health and environment-themed song, "Save Me."

SHOW's big picture focuses on groundbreaking renewable hydrogen products and initiatives, and the growing world hydrogen infrastructure. Informing as it entertains, SHOW is inspirational, with an eye for future developments, and practical, presenting lifestyle models fostering sustainability that can be implemented now. A highlight of SHOW's 6/12-13 debut are Stuart Energy's President & CEO Jon Slangerup's renewable energy panel discussions in the Eco-Dome (1:05PM/Sat., 1:15PM Sun.).

Under Mr. Slangerup's leadership, the Stuart Energy team has established the company as the undisputed brand and market leader for on-site hydrogen infrastructure solutions based on water electrolysis. The company's mission is to pioneer and remain the world leader in the design, marketing, and delivery of such zero-emission technologies, and be at the vanguard of the emerging global hydrogen economy, working for progress in areas including energy security, climate change, and air pollution.

In existence since 1978, and voted Sonoma County's Best Festival from 1994-2003, Health & Harmony -- a longtime proponent of green and sustainable practices -- provides the perfect venue for Stuart Energy's inaugural SHOW venture. And, as SHOW brings the renewable hydrogen marketplace and other innovations to the public, EarthDance will be on hand to lend synergy and message power.
