Barnes is busy of late.  Last week he announced "has been cast as 'Judge Stoughton' in the drama Back to Salem."  According to the author of the book on which the movie is based, Back to Salem will be a short film by an "Atlanta Producer." 

Yesterday, Barnes announced that he will also be "guest starring" on the CW's One Tree Hill which will be filming next week in Wilmington, NC.

Barnes Talks About Prison Break Stint

From Peach Buzz:

When the Fox drama “Prison Break” resumes at 8 Monday night, fugitive brothers Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows have a new nemesis to worry about —Atlanta actor and former Dave FM morning man Steve Barnes.

“I play a Secret Service agent named Drucker,” Barnes said Friday. So far, Barnes has flown to Dallas to shoot two episodes of the addictive drama.

“Essentially, I come in and keep giving [another agent] bad news, and he’s not happy about it.”

Barnes, a big fan of the show, is having a blast.

“It’s a total roller-coaster ride of a show,” he said. “So far, I’m just shooting on a soundstage office set in Dallas. The joke on the set is you don’t want to get a script where you’re running around outside shooting [exteriors]. That usually means you’re dead!”

Barnes’ episodes air Monday and Jan. 29.

Wikiality

Wikipedia has the ability to compare different revisions of a topic.  For example, I can see that the entry:

Saddled with tepid ratings,  [Barnes] parted ways with Dave in September 2006.

Was changed by someone on December 1, 2006 to:

Dave FM decided to go personality free in the morning, so [Barnes] parted ways with Dave in September 2006. He has now been cast as the recurring character "Agent Drucker" on the FOX show "Prison Break".

Barnes to be on Fox's "Prison Break"

According to the Sunday Paper:

Steve Barnes—of 99X and then DAVE FM fame—has joined the cast of the Fox hit, "Prison Break." He plays Agent Drucker, a bad guy, and his first episodes air some time in January or February. He’s currently taping in Dallas, and will, as he himself tells us, "continue to come back and forth to Atlanta as long as my character lives."
