- The first edition of Big Top Locos (October 1994) had two stages in the grounds of the Grand Olympic Auditorium. This is a photo of Lysa Flores performing in the second stage, a.k.a. the Che Guevara stage, logically named for its huge backdrop of the Latin American Insurgent. María Fatal and S.E.L.A.. acts such as Maywood’s J.A.B.O.M. (Just A Bunch Of Mexicans) performed in that same stage.
