Hazell Dean with Searchin 1983, Bacarra and Fantasy Boy in
1988. Makeshift were built to provide a seemingly outdoor for  dancing. Sound System provides disco balls and LED lights.

Discotheque appeared

Club Tiboli Disco - provides a computerized  psychedelic lighting system and disco balls frequented by older Ilonggos. DJ mixes music with no corresponding rap.

Barracks Bar - a mock replica of military base highly appealing to the young was bursting at the Friday night.

The Base Disco

Vega Disco house - with the dancers and the DJ who mostly played acid-house.
