Anyone Remember--The original Dance Fever

Gotta love the shoulder pads. :lol: Too funny. The last time my parents visited, my Mom brought me a photo of me from that era. Yuck!!! The shoulder pads, big hair, and excessive makeup were ... startling, to say the least. :lol:

Yep! We did that a lot! The big hair though is what damaged my hair back then! I'm lucky I've got great hair now!!! :D
 
I found some pictures of me from 1989 or so. Oy vey. You should see the shoes...black patent leather, extremely poitned toes, the toes capped off with metallic tips, and a series of about six silver buckled straps going up the instep. And the big permed hair, cut short at the sides and fluffy on top. I never got in to the huge amounts of makeup, though.

A while ago a friend pulled out some old tapes of the Ohio Star Ball from the mid-80's. And lo and behold there was Ron Montez, Tony Meredith, and Pierre Allaire all dancing Latin in brightly colored catsuits. Yellow and white was very popular that year. And their partners had on dresses sit higher than the hip (with inset panels of flesh-colored fabric) and loads of metallic lame' ruffles.

Yeah. Did you get a gander at her legs? :? And their feet?

But hey. The people watching didn't know, and many were probably impressed enough to go start dancing. Isn't that what it's all about? :cool:

This is why I wear ballroom shoes that cover up my feet and not the strappy ones lol! ;)
 
way back

I co- produced one with Denny Terio, in , I think, 81. I had 3 schools at the time and he approached me to put together location and format ( which he changed !! ) ran into him again in 94, in Clearwater where he was trying to resurect the seventies, by putting on disco events on Sun nites .

The first few weeks, the place was packed !! , then it faded away.
was strange to listen to all the " oldies ", and kinda sad to see its demise. it did so much for the industry. Also, fun to see people doing latin hustle, which many of the newer folks had never seen .( disco is still big in u.k. !! )
 
These sooo make me smile. Especially the one in the 2nd post, I love that they're wearing shower curtains!!
