Are you serious? You mean that you did not like "Knee Deep"-79 or "Freak of the Week"-79 and how can anyone not like "One Nation Under a Groove" -79

Parliment's best years were from 77-80 with "Flashligh, Aqua Boogie, Big Bang Theory, Sir Nose and the theme to the Black Hole.

We have gone too far in a direction of paranoia, gloom and doom, instead of just fun and enjoy.
Yeah the powers to-be realize that we are better controlled under the "fear and oh dear" mantra and consistantly scare the majority of us into giving up our rights as citizens instead of letting us work and enjoy ourselves.

Whatever happened to the picture slides that where shown on the walls of the 2001 V.I.P. in Bridgeville, Pa. Does anybody know that short heavy set guy who would take pics in the club of us patrons. That would be great to see, even on Face Book. I'm looking at the early 1980's time when the dance club was packed...

Default House of Tilden 70's Disco East Liberty

Is the House of Tilden in downtown Pittsburgh part of the old House of Tilden in East Liberty from the 70s?
It was a very popular, busy and private gay disco club.

John Keiber, former DJ and Owner of Castaways Inn (disco-hotel) in Cresson, PA
Anyone out there remember me?
