I wonder what happened to Nick. I called this house a few nights ago.Man, if i can’t talk thatre with TLSLOews,Robin or Nick, it just doesn’t make my night. I will try and call again.
Nick, you have nothing to worry about the way you wrote about THE DALE MARBY DRIVE-IN and 20th CENTURY DRIVE-in In TAMPA,these intros are really not much of what folks like to read. We like what you put down,good solid theatre histories.
Yeah, mike did not do it. Mike thought many times of doing it on that marquee with my hero Clint E. But i guess i was just too lazy,or thought i will do it one night!
Great ad i wonder of all the people to look at that movie ad did they notice “THE CYCLE SAVAGES” rated R with Melody Patterson? hey, wasn’t she that sweet young lady on the TV show “F-TROOP” Melody, i am shocked!
Tlsloews. I was lucky at every theatre i worked there was usually a employee,usually a girl,that was snapping pictures at work. That is how i got 90% of mine. I can see you must not have had such luck. You outta see what Robin has. I bet 50 or 60 snapshots of theatres she worked.WHY DIDN’T WE THINK OF THAT!
Right now my show call is at 2pm so they must have cut the show big time which happens when no tickets are sold. I can’t turn down the call because as Bill knows since he was a stagehand one can make close to two hundred a show.Money i need. But if there is any way i will be there. Couldn’t get ahold of the Tinneys. She is a greeter at Augusta Mall and he works in getting the paper out everyday.
Even if i don’t show up we {the gang from 74-80} plan on meeting back at that Mexican restraunt on Boy Scott Rd. This fall.
I will try and give him a call also the Tinneys,but i just don’t know if they would drive that far even though once you get on BOBBY JONES you can be there pretty quick. It took me more time to drive from Evans to Martinez,Than Martinez to your place.
I wish so much the Screen would have been up , but hopefully with the pictures and your memory he should do fine. You are a dang good artist.
VERY COLD picture.
The Rock Hill Drive-in parked 425 cars in 1956.It was owned by Hyde Park Drive-in Theatres.

My 1956 Motion picture Almanac has it parking 525 cars and being owned in 1956 by Mallers Brothers Theatres.
This Wilmington Drive-in parked 300 cars and was owned by C.D. Holder.

Nick, these guys are getting ahead of you.
Hey, Nick, Andy beat you with this theatre,but I know you can add much more.
In 1956 it parked 470 cars and was owned by Home Theatres.
Yeah, mike did not do it. Mike thought many times of doing it on that marquee with my hero Clint E. But i guess i was just too lazy,or thought i will do it one night!
I wish I could get these guys to write! It is not like they are SHY,they worked in a MOVIE THEATRE!
Maybe she worked here.Andy.
Great ad i wonder of all the people to look at that movie ad did they notice “THE CYCLE SAVAGES” rated R with Melody Patterson? hey, wasn’t she that sweet young lady on the TV show “F-TROOP” Melody, i am shocked!
It parked 350 cars and was owned by a Mr.Edwards in 1956.no first name given.
Robin, get ready for some stories from Tlsloews.He has been reading all our history,now it is time for him to start confessing.
I suggest we move our theatre talk to one of TLSLOEWS Nashville theatres,my hand is getting tired scrolling down these posts.
Andy, your OUTDOOR DRIVE-In parked 275 cars and was owned by Mrs.J.E.Raulerson in 1956.
It is simply amazing as big as KNOXVILLE is and no one to comment on this twin drive-in. the old DIXIE-LEE gets more comments.

You are a Theatre guy that is all ANY of us need to know. I can’t wait to see what she puts on for you.
I love looking at those ads.Theatre business has certainly changed for the worst.
