Van De Guzman, standing left, and Hemingway Jasmin, standing center, founding members of Phase VII, welcomed Glenn Miyashiro, front left, Mike De Guzman and Jonathan Kaina of the Society of Seven-LV to "The '70s Nightclub Reunion II" Saturday at the Renaissance Ililkai Waikiki Hotel. Jasmin and Van De Guzman were the only original members of Phase VII at the show, but with the SOS-LV horn section sitting in, they closed the night with a set that had more punch than the original lineup did.

Frank B. Shaner, left, emcee of "The '70s Nightclub Reunion II," congratulated promoter Robin Kimura, right, and Greenwood member Curt Takahama, as a capacity crowd of more than 850 partied in the Pacific Ballroom at the Ilikai. Since Kimura was the promoter, his band, Greenwood, opened for the others.

THE SOS-LV REPRESENTS
