@Mike Doyle Some were some were not. I probably wont see a reunion. I have terminal cancer. Marc Passed away a couple years ago. I never see most of those guys. It was like they all dropped off a cliff when they got married and had kids. That is life. You grow up and move on.

Wow, thanks for all the great memories this article brings back. I was definitely one of the regulars in my innocent years. Loved everything about Focus from the best music to the atmosphere to the variety of people who seemed to vibe together with ease. I can still picture myself standing on the second floor at the front by the window writing with my fingers on the steam to my friends outside in the line up. Best times EVER! You knew it was reaching closing time when Prince’s “Adore you” came on…lol

Every weekend 86-89 10 or so of us would be at Focus. Garth would let us bypass the line and we would rock the house. Might have a few photos somewhere. Awesome teenage memories, amazing music and atmospere. Thanks for this.

meeting noogie one night nailing it after a major skate session with the regulars. taking back the fear of ‘skinheads’ with one rush forward and take the skinhead boots and piss in them for once. skinhead were a big problem and with help of the untouchables we showed them who is boss. boards and trucks across many bomber jackets and bald heads. they ran away never to screw with the sk8 dudes again. much love to the original trinity crew. 50/50 grinds all day.

I will always remember my twin izabell and first love Johnny Lewis. I met at focus. Who can forget the “untouchables”. We were united, young and carefree.
