Specifically, they were responsible for organizing the shows at the Centro-American Social Club (CASC). They rented out the space, booked and promoted the shows. They even put up the out of town bands and provided a hang-out spot at their house-- which was lovingly called, "Big Blue." They played their final show in July 1985 at the Cubby Bear.
