So the People’s Republic of Disco is coming back, virtually and for one night only.
Details are above on what it is, how to join, how to request a record and how to bung a few quid to The Windmill, their spiritual home.
This is going to be brilliant, please join in.

Great times.

I have memories of being on the dancefloor (unlikely as that now appears) when Nellie the Elephant (or something of similar ilk) came on. And everyone jumped up to dance!

PRoD was just wonderful. (and not just because of that)

 

[ddraig]

Tidy!

 

[stethoscope]

As someone who sadly missed PRoD first time around, and have regularly heard stories that it was amazing, I shall be there!

 

[colacubes]

It's on

 

[Maggot]

Loving it so far.

Got a bit emosh when the talk went to Shirl.

 

[Epona]

That was epic

 

[Mation]

Missed it.

Can I request that anyone tags anyone they think would be interested, like with urban drinkups?

Not that it's happening again

 

[Maggot]

That was such good fun!
So many old faces popped up, although I kept a fairly low profile.
The video clips were superb and seeing old Prod photos made me feel quite emotional.

I know it's not the same without the vid or the chat, but the audio is here if you or anyone else wanted to listen to the tracks; definitely some PRoD classics/staples in there

An inability to edit out the test sequence means music doesn't start till 37 mins (ish) and it also includes the brief moment when I went for a pee and the power went off!

I dipped in and out over the course of the evening; was lovely to see some familiar names in the chat, and got a surprisingly potent tinge of bittersweet nostalgia when I caught a bunch of photos. Good times
