Maybe it was Euphoria, near Produce Row Cafe. One of my old favorite dance spots (Euphoria, that is). One of my old favorite local dance bands, Upepo. . . . . . sweet reveries of yore. I remember the Vortex because I couldn't go. I concur that it was held at MacGiver Park, one of my old favorite swimmin' holes. That's all I remember. Must've killed a few brain cells along the way, because it was such an important issue at the time, I knew everything about it. All gone now though.
