disco dancing in the boston music rooms

Our first disco looked like this from the DJ booth. Of which more later. On Saturday 13 June, in fact.

I’m still struggling to locate words that reasonably describe how it felt. After months of thinking about it instead of sleeping and field tripping like a student in freshers’ week, more than 300 people joined us for the first dirtyconverse DISCO. It was quite beautiful. And full of smiles. And not a poser in sight!

One of the more glorious moments was seeing people dance to Sara Brightman’s ‘I Lost My Heart To A Starship Trooper’, which I feel compelled to link to here:

Guaranteed to make you dance with your eyes shut.

So the toilets were a little minging and the bar unexpectedly busy, but we will be prepared next time. The music and the cheap beer will take us there.

Til next time. May the Brightman be with you.
