"Los Angeles' Love for '80s Music Never Died"

"In the communities of southeast L.A. County and the San Gabriel Valley, there is an '80s scene that is nostalgic not just for the music but for the Los Angeles of that era. This is the '80s as heard on radio stations like KROQ and Power 106, fueled by backyard parties, roller rinks and amusement park events. At its core is a crew of DJs like Andrew, along with venue owners and promoters who keep the nostalgic parties going seven nights a week."
