ABOUT After the "great migration" both decided that they were done with the restaurant industry. Amy C planned to return to college and pursue a degree in education, but Amy L had another thought... 
It all began at a Leif Garrett concert...
It was a cold February day in Norfolk, VA, and Amy L couldn't understand why nobody would take a free ticket to go see Leif Garrett! Just as all hope seemed lost of getting the chance to meet her very first teen idol, Amy C said, "I remember him, I'll go." Well, after a very interesting set, (and a few cocktails) Amy and Amy as well as the other 15 members of the audience, got to meet Leif up close and personal, we'll leave it at that! Let's just say a grand time was had by all, and a new friendship was born by the bonds of Leif!!
It soon became evident that Amy and Amy shared an interest in old school rock, 80s glam metal, and it seemed for all things 80s. The next few years saw many more concert experiences, including a road trip to Myrtle Beach, SC to see Bret Michaels. After all, they had been personally invited to the solo tour by Bret himself when they met him after a Poison concert. Immediately, both Amy and Amy were taken with the laid back Myrtle Beach area. TIME TO RELOCATE!!!

Here's the pitch:
Wouldn't it be great to love going to work everyday? To go to a place that you look forward to being at? Listen to great music all day? Watch all the classic movies we want? Stop the maddening and never ending hunt thru the millions of websites for 80s stuff? BE OUR OWN BOSS?
And so, after many trials, disappointments, and reality checks, the funding was finally secured and a mission had begun:
To provide a ridicule-free shopping experience for all the original Yuppies, Valley Girls, Hair band enthusiasts, Boy-Band-Obsessing, Brat Pack-Loving fans of the 80s and it peripheral years. To offer a unique supply of nostalgic, decade-specific, hard-to-find items of the 80s by retail means.
So, welcome to Retro Active. We hope you will enjoy your nostalgic trip back to the glory days gone by, and don't forget to take home a few souvenirs!!! HOW IT ALL BEGAN! AMY Lbs BIO AMY Cbs  BIO Virtual Tour
