YOUR COMMENTS ON Photos from Disco A Decade of Saturday Nights Exhibit Lincoln Center - New York City: January 31, 2005

Bernie, thanks for the pictures. I guess where I partied the 'disco outfits' weren't as outrageous (lol). Fun to look at. I especially like the "Gold Record" shots of the DJs. Nice to see David Rodriguez of the original Limelight up on the wall.

I'll be going the end of April or first week in May. Friends and I need to set a firm date, but we've all committed. Thanks for the preview.
Nicky
