LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL RADIO SHOW - THIS WEEK'S LINE-UP:

Tony Mart Presents Food, Fun, Travel and Community Professionals live this Saturday and every Saturday at high noon on WPG 1450AM 95.5FM or Listen Live*.

January 22, 2022:

Carnival season has begun in New Orleans and around the world from Rio de Janeiro to Venice! In New Orleans they have just announced the stars that will headline at Jazzfest, April 29 through May 8, 2022! Tony Mart's will be there broadcasting live from the greatest music festival on earth!

This week we will talk about many of these New Orleans stars who have performed in South Jersey at both the AtlantiCare Concerts on the Beach in Somers Point and Mardi Gras AC on the Boardwalk at Kennedy Plaza in Atlantic City.

In addition to the preview and excitement of Mardi Gras and the New Orleans Jazzfest, we will come right back to Bay Avenue where Tony Mart's started with a tremendously exciting announcement.

On the property that Tony Mart himself owned after buying it from Jack Richmond who had the Penny Arcade and a miniature golf course there, the Penny Arcade became Coach's Corner where Levon Helm and Robbie Robertson ate roast beef sandwiches while they played at the Mart in the summer of '65. Next-door was the legendary bayside rock 'n' roll bar, Bayshores which was across the street from the Mart. Ultimately this all became The Waterfront.

With the energy and sophistication that Gary Holloway and Ed Bonsignore have brought to the old Bayshores property, we will now join them and celebrate Tony Mart Presents Country at the Point every Thursday night from June 30 through Thursday, September 1 this season.

You'll hear your favorite country songs from the radio, great country classics, Cajun country, Country Western fiddle and popular Nashville party dance music every Thursday night performed by many of the greatest artists you know and love including Tony Mart Allstars doing their Eagles Country Tribute on Thursday, September 1; an opening night with Hawkins Road and the great Heather Lil' Mama Hardy playing country fiddle and Johnny Sansone performing Cajun Louisiana ballads and dance songs on the accordion on those hot summer nights! Every Thursday all summer Tony Mart will Present the greatest country bands in South Jersey and the tri-state region.

Gleefully we will talk about all the good time libations from Circle Liquor Store and make even more recommendations for your NFL playoff parties and some sweetheart suggestions for upcoming Valentine's Day. Not only do we enjoy the phenomenal values and suggestions for great craft beers, microbrews, specialty and world-class, exotic and rare liquors and wines, but we are proud to have Circle Liquor Store as our celebrated, prime Sponsor.

With all that they do for everyone from hospitality and service to their customers to support and donations to our community, it is no wonder that we can certainly and proudly say that Circle Liquor Store is probably the best independent liquor store in the world! Certainly they are the best in the state of New Jersey and we will have some great recommendations this week to prove it.

From New Orleans and all over the United States we will welcome some of the greatest roots rock, funk, New Orleans rhythm and blues and classic rock 'n' roll in the world today.

For 2022? Think Allman Betts; Martin Barr's Jethro Tull Tribute to Aqualung; The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Bonerama, the Grammy Award winning Phantom Blues Band with the man who taught the blues to the Blues Brothers, Curtis Salgado; Gary US Bonds, Eagles and Santana tributes; and maybe even a return appearance by Taj Mahal.

With that CRDA grant we will produce nine world class free shows! We'll be working to bring some of those and many more to the Boardwalk if we are endowed with the grant for this season. Please help us by sending your emails to the Director of Communications and Marketing for the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, Karen Martin, at KMartin@NJCRDA.com.

Send notes to your friends and ask them to send on letters if you want to see this kind of entertainment and so much more weekly while smelling the familiar fragrances of salt air at this magical Boardwalk venue between the dunes and the classic façade of the original Atlantic City Boardwalk Hall.

For fun we are going to have a trivia contest this week on the radio and ask some questions about Jersey Shore rock 'n' roll. We're going to be giving away CDs from Danny Eyer every week as we purchased some with funds generously donated to Tony Mart Cares. This helps all of you enjoy the good times and supports Danny who again is in need of medical care and requires extra help. We love Danny and ask that you contact him directly to purchase one or both of these great newly released CDs. You can do so at DannyEyer@yahoo.com or Venmo Danny-Eyer.

It's Carnival Season all over the world and we'll celebrate New Orleans Mardi Gras, world-class Jazzfest, a new Country Party Night Thursdays at The Point in Somers Point. We are so grateful that the worst of this accursed endemic is starting to crest and every day we get closer and closer to resuming our great lives as we...

Let the Good Times Roll!
