Default Playlist for RtP Celebrates the 30th Anniversary of the Trocadero Transfer

Slightly recovered from yesterday's (Sunday, October 7, 2007) Remember the Party Celebrates the 30th Anniversary of the Trocadero Transfer event here in San Francisco. WOW!!! Over a thousand people showed up to our little party! One of our producers noticed the line went down the block at one point. Medium Rare Music sold out of all the tickets they were selling for us a day early. Online sales sold at a rate of speed we've never seen before.

Lots of people wanted to celebrate the grand history of the Troc! We even had the organizers from the Love Parade Parties in NYC and the One Night Only Parties in Los Angeles honor us by flying in for the Troc's 30th Anniversary. I saw legendary DJs, Lary Sanders, Steve Fabus (who also spun at Troc) and Paul Goodyear (more about him later!). Jerry told me that DJ Tony Moran was also at our Event (Wow!!! I wish a certain DJ had introduced me!)!!! DJ Phill Mezza flew in from half way round the world to join our celebration!

Everybody wanted to party just like we did during Troc's peak years. In my opinion, our incredible DJ, Jerry Bonham, and our fabulous lighting team recreated the joy and excitement of a Troc Party perfectly!

Jerry played a NINE hour set of authentic Trocadero disco from the 1970s to the early 1980s. I'll post this terrific list in a bit. However, before you read his playlist, I want to invite you to experience his magic with a 3 song set in an 11 plus minute video clip of the party. I couldn't post the video to YouTube because there's at 10 minute limit. However, MySpace allowed me to post the full clip on my page. My MySpace id is “keefelc”. Scroll down about half way and you'll see the clip on the right hand side next to a slideshow of photos I took from the evening. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the mix between the 2nd and 3rd song! What a beautiful combination that I never dreamed would mix together so flawlessly.

Okay, when you're done, come back and I'll have the playlist for you!

Thanks for adding the right link to my MySpace page, Videoskooter (I don't really know what I'm doing when I'm setting up that page )!! I couldn't get it to work right! I have more clips which I'll be adding in the near future plus we'll be adding the longer clips to the Remember the Party website later on.

NRG, SandraDee made it to the party!!! I was so happy to finally meet him later in the evening. Unfortunately, since I was working (filming the evening), I couldn't talk to him for very long. Then he got lost in the crowd! Of course, JeffH, the Disco Kid and Discovery were there!

I'll start my recap hopefully this weekend. However, you folks might want to check out this lovely blog written about this Sunday's event. I should give you a SPOILER ALERT - what's this about a guy in a glitter ball coat??? Please stay tuned!

Hi Keefe,

Looks like another great party!!! Congrats to all involved!!!

Jerry Bonham woulda had me dancing non-stop [if I were still able to DANCE at that point in the evenings festivities!] from the sublime transition of the uptempo "Paradise Island" into the sizzling lowgrade sleaze tempo of "Love Hangover" til the very end of that GREAT morning music set..."Cherchez La Femme"/ "More, More, More"/ "Back in Love Again"/ "I"m Gonna Let My heart Do the Walking"--WOW what a TREAT to hear these records played at Troc!!!!!

Can't wait to heard what it all sounds like and for your play by play recap!!!

GO KEEFE!!!

Thank you TDK, KayJayEm and Marky! This party was my absolute favorite, sprained ankle and everything!! The music, lights and energy literally made the pain disappear (well, some extra strength Tylenol also helped ).

You'll be happy to hear that this afternoon I met up with our producers, Chris and Richard, SFBeary (who I forgot to mention was also at the Party all night long!) AND our DJ extraordinaire, Mr. Jerry Bonham! We spent a delightful afternoon at Cafe Flore having dessert and beverages and talking about last Sunday. However, most importantly, I had to give Jerry the masters of the CDs we recorded! He heads home tomorrow and he'll then start putting everything together to get the CD sets manufactured. He'll also be working with Richard for some snazzy artwork packaging. This year's set will consist of 8 CDs - around TEN spectacular hours of music!!!

I'm still amazed how so many people dance from the beginning to end including a husband and wife team now in their late 60s. They were Trocladytes back in the day and they've loved coming back for the RtPs. They were on the dance floor all night long! Isn't that marvelous? They also paid us a wonderful compliment that this party was the closest to recreating the Troc!

I've been writing down notes and I hope to have the first part of my recap soon! Also, wait until you see the photos and videos from the party coming to the www.remembertheparty.com website! The little clip I posted for you to preview is just the tip of the iceberg!!!

Hello Keefe (& co!..),

Just been googling anything I can find on Sunday and stumbled over here - forgot I became a member of discoworld some time ago now. Lucky my disco aliases and passwords never change so I slipped back in and fit like a glove.

After that rambling intro - it's Phill here (Paul & Wilma's mate) - I’m tossing up what we should re-name Paul after his "Stella" performance the other night.

Should it be "Joseph" after his amazing technicolour dreamcoat performance?
Or
"Megatron Man" as a perfectly suited homage to our late hero, Mr Cowley?

Honestly, the Trocadero Transfer 30th Anniversary party CHANGED MY LIFE EVERYONE!!!! - Hear that!!!!! It was amazing. I travelled half way across the planet to experience it and have loved disco since my mother stopped breastfeeding me back in 1975 (true story, but won't go into that now) - maybe I was breastfed disco, not quite sure, but anyway - moving right along. My point being is, I've ALWAYS LOVED DISCO, FELT DISCO and been PASSIONATE about disco BUT it was not until I went to the Trocadero Transfer on Sunday night and experienced it, that I got the keys to THAT FEELING THAT DISCO MAGIC CREATES.

Words could not describe the thoughts and feelings that overwhelmed me as I danced around the room (LITERALLY - I'm a wanderer in clubs, always have been, always will be) with a club full of strangers (bar a few friends that introduced me to the venue) EVERYONE in the room UNITED and DANCED IN THE NAME OF LOVE and EVERYONE LOVED ONE ANOTHER, nothing else mattered, no other feeling or thought could enter our minds. The music, the lyrics, the energy was all about love and living for the moment, the now.

There were many highlights throughout the night, but I think the pivotal point for me was dancing on the stage to LINDA CLIFFORD's "IF MY FRIENDS COULD SEE ME NOW" - I had left my friends behind to experience this special and unique ritual gathering and one thought at that moment was "Holy F***, If my friends could see me now, this magic in the room, the dancing, the love, the lights, the various walks of life that have entered this space to dance and love, oh if only my friends could see me now, they could see the happiness in my eyes and the tears of joy I’m about to release" That was the first of many cries I had on the dancefloor that night and all of my cries were tears of joy, never pain, all I wanted and embraced that night was that feeling over and over again.

Another spectacle I'll never forget (and doubt it will repeat) was to dance alongside Disco God - Paul Parker (whom I'd been introduced to earlier that evening and might I add, looks exceptionally spectacular now - EVEN MORESO THAN back in the day) and look into his eyes, see his happiness and hear him sing along at the top of his voice to Cerrone's "GIVE ME LOVE" whilst he danced the night away on the Trocadero Transfer dancefloor. - WOW - You don't moments like that anymore. His voice, his charm and his energy was amazing and I was delighted to be in his presence at that point in time.

I could go on an rant more about the feelings I had that night, the mysteries that resolved, the doors that opened, the missing pieces of my life that were found, the visions, the emotions - the everything that the Trocadero Transfer did for me.

I’ll stop there though and conclude with - THANK YOU TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN RTP. YOU HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER!!!!
