Friday May 4th and Saturday May 5th, I went, as usual, to these live shows, at Massasoit Community College, in Brockton, MA, for their 18th annual performance.
Beverly Garland was supposed to come, but, sadly had to cancel, I'd have loved to meet the gal who starred in DECOY, and played Steve Douglas' wife at the end of MY THREE SONS' long run, but it was not to be.
Also sadly, Bob Elliot was not able to come to accept his award when he was entered into The Masachusetts Radio & Television Hall Of Fame, but Tom Goulding, son of the late Ray Goulding, was on hand, so that we did get a BOB & RAY live performance, with Tom playing his late Dad, and famed Boston radio personality, Jess Cain, played the Bob Elliot part.
Robert Horton, of WAGON TRAIN and A MAN CALLED SHENANDOAH, came for the first time this year, and he is in fine shape, and still very rugged and handsome.
Another of my childhood heroes, Rex Trailer, who hosted Saturday and Sunday morning kid shows in Boston from 1956 until 1976, came also, and played THE LONE RANGER, in a newly written show where the ranger visits DUFFY'S TAVERN.
A very fun show, as usual!!!
I will be adding a link here later on, for next year's show!!!
