The South Coast Coalition has been picked to feature their music on "True Lives""True Lives" is the next extreme reality series that will air on Showtime in the Spring of 2003.  The idea is taking a group of people and moving them into a castle in Hollywood; cameras will follow them around for 3 months straight.  (nothing new)  The catch is...Inside the castle are 40 hidden cameras the contestants don't know about.  The show is unedited, so it can't air on basic cable.
