He said all makes and models of cars, all years, are wel- come. They generally get 60 to 75 cars a week. “There are some wonderful vehicles. The car show commu- nity is very tight-knit,” Marshall said, adding the season is 15 to 16 weeks long, and the community makes the most of it. While an enthusiast, Marshall himself doesn’t own a classic car, but “cars and music really go together,” he said. The show is weather-permitting. Marshall said some of the cars are worth $100,000, so owners don’t want to bring them out in the rain, and people won’t be able to look at them any- way. If this Tuesday’s show (Aug. 13) is cancelled due to the rain that is forecast, Marshall said he will be back the follow- ing Tuesday. Classic car owners at Hampton Ponds Plaza cruise.

[email protected]. “It’s great for the community, the Plaza and businesses. The Plaza is very much involved,” Marshall said. While Cruisin’ with Bruce Marshall at Hampton Ponds is the only show he personally owns, he also brings the music and participates in other car shows throughout the season. Marshall said it all started with the Florence Elks Lodge, 15 years ago, after he had just started the AM radio station. “Two gentlemen picked up the phone, and said they would like to do a fundraiser car show,” said Marshall. The Florence Elks car show is still held every Thursday night. “It went from that one show to shows every night of the week,” Marshall said. Now he’s the car show guy, with people coming up to him, telling him they want to start a car show. DJ Bruce Marshall of Valley’s Classic Hits 97.7 FM.

  • Hallelujah! the Soul Man Returns for Season 5
    FEBRUARY 2016 Hallelujah! The Soul Man Returns for Season 5 By Taylor Friedman Thursday night, before a taping of TV Land’s The Soul Man gets under way on Stage 19, series star Cedric the Entertainer leads the entire Season Five cast and crew in a prayer circle. As everyone clasps hands, he reminds them how fortunate they are to be part of such a fun loving, hardworking and inclusive production. It’s a fitting scene, since many episodes of The Soul Man begin with his character, world-famous R&B artist- turned-pastor Boyce Ballentine, addressing his congregants — and the audience — straight on. Then, it’s 5:00 p.m. Show time! The cast, Cedric, Niecy Nash, Wesley Jonathan, John Beasley and Missi Pyle, dance between takes, improvise their lines, and crack jokes. The live studio audience feeds off this energy; in fact, a few brave souls show off their own singing and dancing skills. Created by Suzanne Martin and Cedric the Entertainer and produced by Hazy Mills and Bird and A Bear Entertainment, The Soul Man follows Boyce, his loving, glamorous wife Lolli (Nash), carefree younger brother Stamps (Jonathan) and pious father (Beasley) as they adapt to a more modest lifestyle in St. Louis, out of the Las Vegas spotlight. The show has filmed at CBS Radford ever since its pilot episode, and interestingly, the character Boyce Ballentine was first introduced in Martin’s Hot in Cleveland, another series that filmed on the lot through 2015.
