I guess I am getting spoiled by Nick’s great articles.I don’t see how he has the time.But i enjoy reading them.He made a book on the RITZ theatre that you wouldn’t believe.Tampa theatre.
No, we had no agreements.However,there was a small place that the managers could usually park.The Fire department gave us a break.Alot of the employees at the Imperial,as well I bet in St.Louis and Nashville used the city bus.Otherwise you took a quick break and fed the parking metters.
This town had three Drive-ins . Airport Drive-in,STAR Drive-in and Midway Drive-in. The Star Drive-in parked 315 cars making it Galax’s largest Drive-in. It was owned by C.W.Curtis who also owned the Midway Drive-in.
I have been sitting down and trying to remember every theatre in Georgia i have visited,took pictures and get on CT.so many small towns left to do.I know you have hundreds just in Middle Tenn.I would like Nick to put them on,but he is so busy with his Tampa theatres.I guess you saw Robin’s post on National Hills.
SiliconSam. That is it I have a picture of it in my Drive-in photo Album.I don’t think CT would print it because of the word spelt.I should have taken the time to remove it,It wasn’t a very dirty word.but refered to Gays. F—s.
You would have to go and dig around in the various places in town.There might even be a book on old Buildings in Nashville at the local bookstore.I know Augusta has several regional books that shows a lot of the old city and that includes the long lost movie theatres here.Give Borders a try I know a city the size of Nashville has such a book. Take it easy.mike.
Well, yeah,but 95% of our talking is about cinemas not the how well the Braves are doing.
That sure looks like a theatre to me the auditorum could turn behind a building,like the Miller theatre in Augusta.
thanks,Bob.
Yep,That is the theatre i saw.I am so glad they saved it. Thanks for getting the picture on SiliconSam.
You know that is an interesting statement about Drive-ins,Any special reason?

Wasn’t fun seeing moviegoers exiting the movies throwing chops and kicks every where.Made me long for National Hills and G rated Disney Product.
No Matt, wish i did.I got that info from The 1956 Motion Picture Almanac.Good Hunting.

Bob,my info came from 1956 Motion Picture Almanac so it probably changed hands through the years.

Nick.you must do something to protect them from the elements.
We had one here the WEIS DRIVE-in in car heat and A.C.. on CT.
A Classic Drive-in.
Okay.
Thanks.
Tsloews,don’t be shy put down what you remember we all love reading stories.
It parked 450 cars and was owned by Crescent Amusement Co. They owned a couple of Drive-ins in the Music City.
Tisloews,going to have to do some research.
Why would someone take a picture of the back of the 20 plex.I got a feeling it looks like our Regal 20 here in Augusta.
