11/1: Tom Joyner’s Sky Show this Friday
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Tom Joyner’s annual Sky Show comes to the Atlanta Civic Center this Friday with Cameo (“Word Up”) and comic Sinbad. It’s free and seating is open, first come first serve. Some folks will camp out overnight for a good seat but it’s not hard to find a decent spot to sit since many folks will be coming and going over the four hours. You’ll be able to listen live on Kiss 104.1.
Parking is $5 at the Civic Center, which is at 395 Piedmont Ave. in downtown Atlanta. Monies raised this month will go to Savannah State University in Savannah.
This is pretty fun despite the early hour. Past years, I’ve gotten to see Jeffrey Osborne, the Gap Band, Al Green and the Whispers.
Participating sponsors include Budget Car Rental, State Farm Insurance, Tracfone, Johnson & Johnson, Choice Hotels and McDonald’s.

I have never attended, but have had the opportunity to view it on TV. Mr. Joyner is a blessing to HBCU’s and to us as a whole.

With events like this going all night long Tom Joyner’s following is sure to grow. Especially with the homeless camped out in the park. Really they’d have no choice considering the fact that they,too,were up all night last night. Let’s all pray that these people find some decency and respect for others at this morning’s event. The rest of us who had to work on Friday will be sure to take the day off next year to join in the festivities.

who cares? It’ll just be an OMNI event.
