The Buffalo Niagara Convention Center was the place to be last night because on the Saturday night of Thanksgiving weekend every year, it's home to..... |
The World's Largest Disco! |
Arriving around 10PM and already finding the place jammed! |
More bell bottoms and go go boots per capita than any other place in the world! I don't know if these were the DJ's or not but they really didn't feature them. It was all about the music! |
70's Disco music all night such as "Heaven Knows" & "Boogie Fever". |
And "Knock on Wood" & "Celebration". |
We were doing the "Car Wash" dance! |
And doing it right! It's better than digging a ditch! |
There were dance routines on stage. |
Pilot and his crew. |
The music everyone knows the words to! |
I want to fly on this airline! |
With 70's clothes back in style again, no one really looked out of place! |
Well, maybe a little bit. |
"Get Down Tonight"! |
Afros were big in the 70s'.....and last night! |
70's commercials played on the big screen. |
70's TV show posters ringed the auditorium. |
The event is a charity fundraiser and some of the celebrities on hand included some of the Brady Bunch kids! |
"Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel" |
"Let's Groove Tonight" |
"Play That Funky Music". The hits just kept on coming! |
You never knew what you'd see next! |
Estimated 7,000 Disco fans in attendance! |
It was like a night in 8TRAX.....but crazier! |
Dancing in every square foot of the place! |
Obligatory shiny disco ball! |
Packed to the rafters! |
Deney Terrio hosted weekly television show "Dance Fever" beginning in 1979 during the Disco craze that had swept the nation. |
Joined by Blair from "Facts of Life". Where's Tootie? |
And five of the "Brady Bunch" kids, although the latter was the "Fake Marcia" from one of the later "Brady Bunch" movies. |
Loni Anderson and Howard Hesseman played Jennifer Marlowe and DJ Johnny Fever on the 70's sitcom "WKRP in Cincinnati". It was fun getting to meet them. |
There was a "Grease" routine, a huge touring play in the 70's that was about the 50's. |
When the 70's are playing, you just can't be anything but happy! |
Right? |
Nothing brings back the 70's like KC& The Sunshine Band. |
And ABBA! |
Live performance from trio Chic (USA) doing "Good Times" and "Le Freak" for us followed by Sister Sledge hit "We Are Family". Everyone in the crowd was singing along! |
If you think this is for you, save the date! It's pretty amazing! |
You ain't lived until you've done the "YMCA" with 6,999 of your closest friends! I don't have to tell you but I'll tell you anyway: A good time was had by all! |
