Under other badly spray-painted messages including, "Ban boy bands" and "Kill Britney" were words a quarter of a century old: "DISCO SUCKS!"

Shit, even grafitti is all about nostalgia.

Disco is all about goodness and slick joy.

When David Byrne wrote the lyric, "This ain't no party / This ain't no disco," Talking Heads were cheered as if they were champions of the movement to halt the mirror balls. In fact, TH loved all kinds of dance music. David Byrne wrote that attacks on disco were both anti-black and homophobic.

Are you around Thursday and/or Friday morning for some phone time? Or early afternoon?
