1986 Cruising Mission Beach San Diego in 1966 VW Fastback Type III 

Born and raised in SD. The 80s were so much fun. I had a 1964 bug💖

omg i lived right there back then. in apt over robertos. i looked out at that roller coaster every day. god how i miss that wonderful place. im in tears right now

Born in San diego 1985.. we left in 99... ohhh how much I miss the weather

Thank you very much, for the video. 👍

Crusin' Dago in a 66 fastback listening to what sounds like 91X who were killing it back then on the radio. Nice. '86 spring of I just got assigned to USS Ranger on north Isle. Good times

I lived in PB / MB in 1986, I watched very close to see if I was in this video or anyone I knew! So great to see this, so wonderful to see a video from this specific time. I used to work on Mission Blvd in '86. I had a huge studio apt in PB a few blocks from the water for only $300 a month. I actually wrote my name fresh cement on Mission Blvd on April 22 1986 and it's still there!

I remember always watching the freestylers doing their thing in front of Hamels and riding my skateboard from the jetty to the pier and back a couple times a day... sweet memories!

I was back there in 2010 I think and the commercialism took me by surprise, so much changed since I left for LA.

Thanks for posting. A great flashback. Lots of fun. I remember driving around on the same streets, at the same timeframes, with friends and family.

I graduated from Mission Bay High School in 83. Nice blast from the past. The 80s .... lots of cocaine no cell phones... Rosario slices $1. Mr D's breakfast $2 tuggs Tavern spaghetti $1 PB Cafe......

Lived in san Diego from 97 to 2000. Loved mission beach. Thanks for this - good stuff !!

Wow that is awesome. Thanks for posting. Amazing how little the place had changed. Businesses come and go but the area is unmistakeable to anyone who makes that commute

I'm bummed you didn't show JITB on Mission Blvd. I tell my kids the Starbucks used to be JITB everytime we drive passed. LOL

Thank God Peter made it in the video! That was close.

What a blast...loved it. Had to pour out a lot of beer on that board walk and lot next to the roller coaster..cops always spotted me Lol

met my hubby on that beach that year. really wish i knew where all my old friends went

I went to high school in San Diego during this time. The city was so much more livable back then. Rents and housing prices weren't all that much higher than the national average. You could still be a beach bum and live near the beach.

It feels like I'm playing GTA: Vice City

I love the soundtrack! "A Forest" by The Cure.

I used to park in that parking lot next to the roller coaster and go to the beach all the time - 82 - 86. Remember buying a soda at that store right by the entrance to the beach

The Coaster Saloon: Often imitated, never duplicated. 1904 PB Crew.

04:00 Hahaha Haven't seen a pair of Flo-Jo's... probably since then 🤔

Driving a clutch in Flojos. LOL

Such a fun part of my life spent there on the beach, hanging with great friends at coasters etc. Saw some great bands back then too, U2, The Cure, Echo, Jane's Addiction, Kiss, Smithereens and oh so many other fun bands of the 70s and 80s. Best band I've seen in the 2010s is Wolf Alice, a fantastic band who need to get there 3rd album finished dammit:)!

Back in the mid 80s till mid millennium San Diego was playing a unique style of punk/ pub rock. All the best, most intelligent and beautiful scene. I moved from Brooklyn NY, pre gentrification and it was a pleasure, a honor to have spent and shared with the pit Punks, Friends of no one, and the Pacific Beach Vermin. And there was a strong soul connection. PB drive during high tide the guys would be so sweet, being very shy I felt like I was loved and appreciated ❤️. So much talent and dedication from Davy Quinn ( Tiltwheel). At 15 he brought ( venues) 100s of bands when no band would ever play again . Full contact rock and dive bars that helped keep punk bands venues weekly. Now gentrification is killing the street rennisance, dive bars are being closed due to obscene rental prices, and people waiting for some thing or some one to do the entertainment. We still have a few places but we need to get together and create. I was very insecure when I was younger. But I have never had turned my back and will always sing_ practice and emulate to train my vocals. I still push friends to come over for a little bit of💩🌪️🤸🤼☕🍄🍻🎶🥁🎹📷🎵🎭📺🕯️🕯️🖋️📁📝🎸🎻🎶📢🚀🛸👂🗯️💀💀💀💀💭🕳️🤘✍️🍄☕📺🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵

What was the name of that sick ass song in minute 3-4

my husband used to sit on the beach and play his guitar

Saun Romano is my cousin, are you still friends with him?

Almost 40 years and not that much has changed. Now if Flojos could just make a comeback...

Almost everyday Mission Beach in the early 90's. Boardwalk, Hamels, Big Olaf, taco shop, Red Onion.

17 seconds playing!

does anyone remember the chickens roost? it was gone before 86

Wow

I go to that exact place with my boyfriend to play Pokémon go now lmao

What's the second song playing?
