wow! the disco sucks thing had been heard of down under, though I never realised to the extent of what actually happened. People in Aus most likely copied the idea on to the death to disco thing. At the time there was a huge rise in the popularity of pub rock bands, which was causing a bit of a backlash on the disco sales and airplay. Of course this also led to the rise of a few confrontations with other patrons and police etc. My local place to watch bands was notorious for it. Every Saturday night a fight would errupt in some bar, the three combatants being bikie gangs, police and locals. It was a bit of fun I suppose when I was in my teens, but how I never got my head caved in sometimes I would never know.
I'm quite glad I live a rather sedate life now with my partner and puppies. :D

I went to high school in the early '70s and thought at the time that I was totally uncool--but I had waist-length hair, wore bell-bottoms, miniskirts, and hot pants, drove a '68 Mustang, and loved Firesign Theatre. Looking back, I guess I was pretty cool after all! :D

I had a mood ring and a pet rock. Remember Don Kirshner's rock concerts? I remember one time there was a guy wearing clear thick high heeled boots and the heels had real goldfish swimming in them. I also had more than one of those velour shirts. I loved them. I also did the macrame. Here's a link about the rock concerts.

even though I wasnt alive in the 70s, the 70s was my favorite time era, and it fasinates me so much!
I wish I was living in that time..

I was born in 1972, but I do remember a lot of the things that were mentioned. Every girl in elementary school had a crush on Shaun Cassidy, and all of us had Grease t-shirts.:)
