Hahaha now That was some Old School **** I remember all that.
Now I'm going to take it back to see if you guys remember the "Studio Club" a dance club that was tape and replayed that night on TV ch.39 or 26. now that was in '90-'91 The Kid and Play(Rap group) days. I spent alot of childhood summers there with the season pass.

Damn, I'm sure going to miss the gas powered Model A cars. The steering on those things must have been German engineered.
Oh well. At least I still have my dog leash/collar with the invisible dog in it.

Actually the reason Astroworld was sold is that area is PRIME property believe it or not.... 
Especially with Reliant and the Med Center very close by....Big buisness coming next.
