disco demolition night


30 years ago yesterday was the famous disco demolition night between games of a doubleheader between the chicago white sox and the detroit tigers. I remember it like it was yesterday. Some credit it as the beginning of the end of disco. Any one else remember .

The whole scene was redolent of Hitler's book burnings, only most of the Nazi's weren't drunk.

Rock and roll had a similar effect on the generation that preceded it as well. There was much talk of banning R&R, the devil's music.

But, of course there would be no disco if there was no rock and roll. And there would probably be no dance, rap, dub or hip-hop without disco. Each generation seems to reject the music of the those that follow it and perhaps that is how music evolves.
Macdadtexas, your intentional misspelling of my user name is neither cute, nor witty.

Actually, upon further reflection, it's both, as well as being hillarious. LOL!
