Always wanted one , I do have a 4 color laser light projector and a smoke machine but no disco ball My son in law had them and gave them to me, kind of wild looking. I should bring it to Hope for when the bands play. you have to pull up with your bus... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Further_(bus) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An yes I probably left some hearing back then I am sure. I was closer to @dtel setup than Diz, I had the same, two turntables and a RTR with Cornwall knockoff (they were Speakerlab 7's). It was late 70's and disco was still big (ughhh) No mirror ball or smoke machine though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met my wife at my best friends wedding, she was his cousin and he introduced us. He is dead now, no I didn't kill him for doing that. But when you playing music back then you had to have all the disco type music, it's what they all asked for. I hauled around milk crates full of LP's, disco and rock, 2 turntables a pair of Cornwall replicas, a RTR and a Sansui 8080. I would play vinyl and when I wanted to take a break and go get a drink I would let the RTR play, it was fun, you would be surprised how big of a place filled with people some Cornwall's could fill, and sound good. This was 40 years ago when we met, I couldn't do that anymore I refuse to buy play or listen to rap and I know some would want to hear it. Plus now you would be expected to talk, back then you just played music. 20 minutes ago, MookieStl said: I was closer to @dtel setup than Diz, I had the same, two turntables and a RTR with Cornwall knockoff (they were Speakerlab 7's).

There's a destination a little up the road From the habitations and the towns we know A place we saw the lights turn low Jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts Two turntables and a microphone Bottles and cans and just clap your hands and just clap your hands Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone Take me home in my elevator bones! That was a good drum break Pick yourself up off the side of the road With your elevator bones and your whip-flash tones Members only, hyponotizers Move through the room like ambulance drivers Shine your shoes with your microphone blues Hirsutes with your parachute flutes Passing the dutchie from coast to coast Let the man DTEL or MOOKIESTL rock the most Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone What about those who swing both ways: AC-DC's Two turntables and a microphone Two turntables and a microphone Two turntables and a microphone Two turntables and a microphone Two turntables and a microphone Two turntables and a microphone Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone Where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone Oh, dear me.

DizRotus Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I had a mic, but I didn’t use it much. The music was non-stop as the songs overlapped. The kids would use the mic more than I did. Rather than RTR, I used a Sony TC 161-SD cassette deck. It was seldom used, but essentially each night ended with Stairway To Heaven while the turntables were packed up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rplace Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Good morning all! Been a few pages. This thread gets some heavy use. Coffee this morning but tomorrow morning at 11 AM beer for breakfast. Anyone like Belgian beers? They are my favorite, so much history and innovation. And no Blue Moon does not count! If interested check out the literally 100s of drafts and bottles for this 3-day event. http://maxs.com/ scroll down to "Event: Max's 14th Annual Belgian Beer Fest" and make sure you expand the list. Way too many to copy and paste here unless I was Mike @dirtmudd They have a web cam, look for me tomorrow....I'll be the one with the glass in my hand. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-js- Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 morning guys. I don't often check in here , just ... because. hope everyone is getting their day going & beginning well. I'm traveling for work for a couple days, so I "get" to enjoy the hotel life one more time doing this gig I do. so how often do you hear really good, or cool music on the system in a public place? I've been up for an hr +. I walk down to the lobby for another cup as I begin to get ready & head out. so I walk out the door of my room, I immediately recognize Bowie's "Let's Dance" ! I wish I was in charge of the music - I'd be waking EVERYBODY up with that stuff! nice. gives me something to bob my head to while I shower & whatnot. I like it. you folks enjoy. have a great day today. I guess I gotta get going. I know there are things I should be doing 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
