The 1980’s….the decade of decadence that fashion forgot but which also produced some of the most awesome music of all time! It also provided us with the 80s disco setup which many party goers of a certain vintage look back on with fond memories!
In these days of most mobile disco setups looking like clones of each other….the 80s Disco Roadshow offers something a little bit different!
There’s a big resurgence in everything ’80s at the moment, especially with the younger generation. I’m even seeing a lot of ’80s themed weddings, and that makes me a very happy DJ indeed!
Putting the “wattage in the cottage” whilst “rocking the rafters” with the “platters that matter”…
I’ve seen parties where fancy-dress has been the order of the evening (as is usually the case) where an entire family of Smurfs has arrived, and there have been so many nylon costumes that the atmosphere was quite literally…electric!
Of course, the costumes help to shape the playlist too! After all, who wouldn’t play the Theme from Ghostbusters when Venkman walks onto the dance floor or Danger Zone when Goose is strutting his stuff?
The 80s Disco Roadshow is a genuine mobile disco light-show as would have been seen at functions during the 1980’s, and was indeed the first type of mobile disco I used to own in those far off days of yesteryear.
Much of the Roadshow as seen today is my original setup from the day.
With the advantage of digital quality sound and the enhancement of just a few modern-day fixtures (the original light-shows lit the floor, not the room!), the 80s Disco Roadshow is being used more and more for milestone disco parties….especially those with a theme based around the 1980’s.
It’s old, it’s heavy (I know the feeling!), and it’s how a disco used to look!
Although nearly 40 years old, this particular setup probably receives more comments from customers and guests than any other I take out onto the road.
Many customers and their guests remember this type of setup from the days of the school disco of their youth.
It’s a real trip down memory lane! And believe me, the music matches the memories of the flashing lights!
Fancy dress from the era, pineapple and cheese on sticks, and music from your youth….what better way to celebrate your special birthday than with a disco setup the way things used to be back then?
Please note that due to the weight of the ’80s Roadshow, it’s really only ideally suited to ground floor venues. Function rooms which involve stairs will sadly incur additional fees and need extra time to set up!
It doesn't just have to be for '80s themed parties!
The Roadshow is also regularly used for:
* Weddings
* 60s themed parties
* 70s themed parties
* Any other party where you’d like things to look just a little bit different from the modern day equipment!
And as you’d expect with any party I work at you get:
* Full playlist management via my online planning tools
* Me, as your award winning DJ (and someone who was there in the 1980s!)
* Fully tested equipment
* Fully insured
* Memories to last a lifetime!
