There was a big rockabilly scene happening in L.A. in the early '80's. We used to go to a place in Hollywood called the Cathay de Grande (on La Brea I think). You could catch Levi Dexter, the Paladins, Jimmy & the Mustangs and Ray Campi there nearly every night of the week on their hot, sweaty little basement stage. You can experience the old club in a scene from the Nick Cage movie Valley Girl, with the Plimsols performing.
