[Dynagroove] Defining moments in LA

More memories keep coming...like Jason said...
Double Hit Mickey!!!
Ron D Core
Barry Weaver
etc etc...
Remember when it was all either Techno or Acid House?  
Remember when people danced just by throwing their hands in the air?
Remember that weird dance that made people look like they were jumping rope?  (of course it was still better than the nordic trac that people came up with years later..lol)
Remember before E got really big and most everyone was either sober or on acid?
Moving up a few years...remember when Latin House started up and it was the big thing for a while...Sweet Sundays...Baby Dos...The Dome (no, not the Masterdome..lol)...ha!  :)  I loved the latin house.  :)
Remember parties at Leonardos?
Remember driving to a map point just to get more directions...to another map point?
Remember when TIME started up?
Remember when there were parties at the Shrine all the time??  (Happy Happy Joy Joy)
wow...Remember when?
