she's mighty mighty, just lettin' it all hang out

Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down

Play that funky music, white boy! Tonight was Disco Night in Steelhead. Oh, it was terrifying.



Miss Darkling Elytis looking quite groovy, she of the amazing dance moves...



...and Lumina of the white fluff. Yes, for those curious, the back of this outfit was nearly completely missing.

Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear the percussion...



Our DJ Fuzzball Ortega actually fuzzy. He kept changing his fur all night. But he looks damned fine as a werewolf...



Yes, that's me. Yes, I know. Totally unrecognizeable.

Blow horns you sure sound pretty
Your violins keep movin' to the nitty gritty
When you hear the scratch of the guitars scratchin'
Then you'll know that rhythm carries all the action, so
Whoa, yeah...



Miss Nabila Nadir, misunderstanding that we didn't mean 70 BC.



Miss Tensai Hilra, blade-thin and very seventies...Note behind her an unrezzed Mr. Dylan Dench, and DJ Fuzzball, with changed fur again.

Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear the percussion...



Miss JeZeBeLe Dagger, who won for Funkiest Gal at the dance...



...and Puck Goodliffe, who won for Funkiest Guy. Go, seventies plaid...

There were so many people, I didn't get them all. I tried...



Had to get these, though. Not a perfect image because of transponder difficulties, but this was the best I could do. Mr. Edward Pearse and Miss Christine McAllister as Finnian Fitzgerald's Shiny Disco...Balls.

*ahem*.

Moving on!

Flute player play your flute 'cause
I know that you want to get your thing off
But you see I've made up my mind about it
It's got to be the rhythm, no doubt about it, whoa whoa...



Miss Scully Weir looking very psychedelic...



...and Miss Foxy Innis in retro dots. Note the matching handbag.

'Cause when the guitar player start playing
With the syncopated rhythm, with the scratch, scratch, scratch
Makes me wanna move my body yeah, yeah, yeah
And when the drummer starts beating that beat
He nails that beat with the syncopated rhythm
With the rat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat on the drums, hey



Miss Kattryn Severine, owner of Steelhead. Lovely as usual.



Miss Samson Innis, tall and lithe and leggy and braided.

Wait, are those braids?

Note also behind her, the now visible Mr. Dench in...western wear...and Fuzzball Ortega, wolfin' it up in green.

Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear the percussion...



Group shot. :) Note the newly-retextured Jupiter dance ball...someone remind me to retexture it back to Jupiter??

Love to hear it
Love to hear it
Love to hear it



And our disco demonic host, Darien Mason...who actually found an afro big enough to hide his horns. That's a bizarre accomplishment...



...and I snuck one of TotalLunar Eclipse...this was as close as he could come to the deep tack of the seventies without going into convulsions.

Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down



And finally, snuck a side shot of a few folks I hadn't yet snapped. This is Mr. Timelord Cardiff in purple dancing with Lumina, the Duchess of Loch Avie, Eva Bellambi, dancing with Mr. Hotspur O'toole (at the very far far right), and between them, Miss Samson Innis.

Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear the percussion
Love to hear it...

Lay down the boogie and play that funky music 'til you DIE!

Over and out.
