When the movie came out I was stationed at a Navy base in the Tennessee where at the time red-neck Rock ruled and where the phrase “Disco sucks” was first uttered. I don’t remember the movie going over real well down there. I first saw it on HBO or Showtime years later, when Disco was truly on it’s way out, being replaced by the much better 80’s Rock inspired by MTV which was a great channel in its early days.

Disco was, IMHO, better than that undanceable, downmarket, seven-minute guitar solo dreck that dominated American rock and roll.
Punk, on the other hand, brought excitement back to rock and roll.
