Whats old is new

May 27, 2008 by Chris

bellbottoms.jpgIs disco really back? Well that’s a post that I recently posted on my other site Guitar Licks, and I think that it is quite the question that we old school rockers have to be asking ourselves these days!

While speaking to my buddy Andy a minute ago on the phone, oh BTW let’s congratulate the old fart on his 42nd B.D., he told me what’s old is new today. I told him of my post and when he said those words my blood went cold for a split second!

We talked about the kidz today and how they are taking note of and wearing way back in the old disco days. Are you ready for some of these beauty’s?

How about those old bell bottoms? They seem to be all the rage again. Ok now, hands up who had a pair or two of these in their collection in the early 70’s? Don’t be shy now, we’ve all done/wore things in our past that we’re not particularly proud of.

rainbow-mork.jpg What about the rainbow colored suspenders! Remember Mork, from the Mork and Mindy show? I must admit, I use to have a pair … I wonder where they are right now?

And last but not least, rainbow colored platform shoes … hee, hee ,hee!

discoshoes.jpg A buddy of mine had one and later painted them black and used them in our Kiss tribute band Deuce,when he was portraying Gene Simmons! I gotta admit, damn did they look good.

So what’s your story?

Keep on Jammin’

    We just love to hear stories like that one JuLia. That saying is soooo true now isn’t it!

    but here’s a question for you, did you like the music of the 70’s?

    Keep on Jammin’
