Funkmaster Flex’s Celebrity Car and Bike Show

This summer has been a most unusual one for the Magic City. Far from being just another sleepy sweater post-season, this summer has featured an inundation of great concerts (Mum, the Cure), car shows galore and, to cap it all off, a wild and overcrowded MTV VMA weekend of parties. Most would need a breather after all that, but now here comes yet another car show, this one sponsored by Funkmaster Flex. One expects this to do better than last year’s edition, which only drew a disappointing few hundred spectators; scheduled performers Fat Joe, Lil’ Jon, Ludacris, and others, along with host Wyclef Jean, should help wake the kids from their Labor Day haze this time around.
