Disco Inferno NOT!

Friday night, Michael, Amy, Marsha, and I all went out to Blü for their Studio 54 night. I was so looking forward to partying like it was 1975, but to my misfortune the era of glam, mirror balls, and multi-colored leisure suits were not to be found.

A Disco Inferno it was not, the flame was tepid at best. I hold the DJ fully responsible for this. Many a pop song have given praise to the DJ for saving lives and giving joy. DJ Mike Electra, who was spinning the tunes on Friday, was strangling that joy for me. Maybe, it was the fact that he was young, so there by unappreciative of the music that really helped pioneer electronica and dance pop, but when the dance floor is empty it might be time to hang up your head phones and let someone do the spinning.

Only three songs from the 70's was played that whole night. It made me wonder if Mike Electra even knew what Studio 54 was. Plus, when my friend Amy went up and requested Madonna's 4 Minutes, the DJ fulfilled her request, but with some botched up remix that was terrible and hard to dance to. The whole night was a bust for me, very disappointing and lack luster especially when compared to the White Party event. The only upside was watching some poor, tragic, drunk girl make a fool of herself on the dance floor. She was a second away from being in a Girls Gone Wild video. Either way Mike Electra blew hard core and should be banished from the booth for eternity. I mean how can you have a Studio 54 night without DISCO????
