This wasn't the Cherry's on the Green disco was it? It was in Key Biscayne and I remember a young Leo Vela being a mixer there. Back from the 96X days before the station became Power 96...

Actually Casanova Dude, that CHERRY'S was called "Cherry's on the Green", located in the Key Biscayne Golf Course's Function room. Four speakers hanging from the ceiling. Small place, and yes, LEA VELA did deejay there, but WAY before he worked at POWER 96, he was working at DISCO 96, a station that had it's lisence pulled by the FCC because a deejay named OZ rigged a HONEYMOON IN PUERTO RICO contest in the summer of 79. I knoew it is a long time ago. Al Chio and Funky Frank Walsh also were deejays there. On Saturday nights, local Night Club deejays woulsd spin a few hours, I was there, as were Carlos Nodal, Luis"Rattlesnake" Martinez and others. After this station, which used to be accross AURTHUR GODFREY Road in front of the Roosevelt Theatre in Miami Beach closed, Al Chio went to Y100. Leo Vela went to SUPER Q, and Funky Frank Walsh started a new station in Cuttler Ridge called RHYTHM 98. Remember now?? They Cherry's I'm talking about was a small hole in the wall , off US1 and north on 17th Avenue. There is a QUIZNO'S there now. DJ Octavio Machado wass there, wish he would tell us the real story on that place. MIXMACHIMNE???

One other thing on Cherry's... if you spun there you probably saw our group there a few times. We were usually the biggest , if not the only group there...lol. We were Miami High Stings and were all in a club and would hand there once in a while...I remember having fun since we would basically take over the place and make it our own private party... Peace.

I remember the group from Miami High at CHERRY'S ON THE GREEN, you are right, you were like the only ones who ever went there. The only place(well not the only place)in town that let under-age kids in. The CHERRY'S that this page belongs to is the LESBIAN club off US 1 and SW 17th ave. that is where the MixMachine used to spin at. CHERRY'S ON THE GREEN was inside Key Biscayne's Golf Course. Miami High students did run that place!! It wasn't around too long, maybe a year or two, thats all.

I get the message, with a name like CASANOVEDUDE, you spent alot of time at CIRO'S, but did you ever go to my CLUB MYSTIQUE??From 1984-86? At least once??

Well Casanovedude, I played in a lot of different clubs in both New York City Area, and all over Miami. I ran the Florida Record Pool in its prime, met and knew all the deejays. Friends with almost all of them. Saw everything, never missed a thing. A real-life story, that's me. I have a point of view of those days, that few can even imagine. Keep coming around, there is plenty left!!

The Cherry's you speak of was actually called Cherry Grove, I sent in the logo,hopefully they get it up soon.

In fact I sent in both Cherrie's logos.

Thank you, 305. Now if you could get MACHADO to comment, the world would be perfect. How was your WMC event?

Thats the wrong logo for this page,it's the Cherry Grove logo that belongs here!

Next year, you should get ISH to reunite FOXY!!! And get THE VYNIL JUNKIE to come out of retirement as well!!

I will definitely do it! Plenty of time to get ready!!!!

But the first name that club had was.
Sebastian.
