Section #3 - Super Soap Weekend Edits - Kassie DePaiva, Kristen Alderson

SSW 2001 Tape #3 - Street Jams - Walt Wiley hosts - 2 hrs 30 mins – SP Saturday Street Jam -
(This was my first of the outdoor evening concerts, and there were a lot of heads to work around - led to very tired arms. I think the Sunday concert came out the best and had the best video of the two concerts) This event was fun, it was great to hear all the vocal talents, it was a special treat to hear Susan Lucci sing since I haven't heard her before. Walt introduces all the stars: Catherine Hickland, Michael E. Knight, Kiko & Erin, Josh & Rebecca, Finola & David Canary, Thorsten, Susan Lucci, Ingo, Linda Dano, Hilary B. Smith, Robert S. Woods, David Fumero, Laurence Lau, Maurice, Tamra, Jackie, Cameron, Kelly, Brian, Coltin (parade not shown) Let's Get Loud" (?) played as the stars danced on stage with confetti raining down on them. Good shots of Tamra dancing, and of Kiko dancing. Kurth & Taylor - they sang three songs: "Freedom", "No Surrender", then a song he said he just sang on GH sorry don't know the title of it either. Kassie Di Paiva - First she sang "Simply Love", and she made a lot of jokes about Blair looking for her baby. She also sang a really good country song, something about I just want to be an ordinary girl. I really liked it.

Coltin Scott - he also sang two songs. I'm not sure what the first one was but think the second one was titled, "Stay". This is a great song with the makings of a top 10 hit. I think I will wear out my tape listening to this one!

Susan Lucci - oh my gosh this lady can really sing. She sang three songs, the first one "Black Magic", then a song about winning an Emmy, then a third one. Kurth & Taylor - they returned again at this point to close the show with "Let It Go". Wally talked about the fear we have had as a country and then introduced this song that is it time to let it go. I panned up to show the fireworks going off above the stage.

Sunday Street Jam - This event came out pretty good. I had a good spot and had gotten down videotaping in this environment. So I think the Sunday event came out better than Saturday, as the picture was much more stable. Poor Walt is incredibly hoarse by this time and this became a running joke throughout the evening. This was kicked off by the parade of all the stars: Linda Dano, Finola & Jack S., Thorsten, John Ingle, Cameron, Marisa, Hillary & Laurence, Tamra, David Fumero, Brian & Kelly, Robert S. Woods, Rebecca & Josh, Ingo, Kiko & Erin, James & Kassie, Michael E. Knight, Maurice (with his daughters). "Let's Get Loud" played - good shots of Finola dancing with Jack, Marisa & Tamara

Kurth & Taylor start off - they rock out, it was great! I don't recall the name of the first song but words are "can't believe what the girl has done to me", then they sang 7th Son.

Kassie Di Paiva - she sang a new song, then sang the ordinary girl song that I enjoyed so much the night before. She really has a beautiful voice. Then Walt came out as she finished and whispered in her ear...I think they needed her to fill some time. So she calls James up on the stage and they sang, "Natural History" which was a very sweet moment.

Catherine Hickland - she sang with two guys who were her backup singers. Coltin Scott - sang two songs, one being "Stay" - I really like that song! Finale - this was beautiful. Kassie comes out singing "America" as the crowd ooohs and ahhhs. Then she is joined by Wally - oh my can he sing this song, then Coltin joins in, then Catherine. Its was truly an amazing combination. I panned up to try to catch a bit of the fireworks in the background so you could get a feel for being there.
