I think that, at the silent dsco, they should have several djs spinning at one time. Then the head-sets could be handed-out at random, making for a much more viewer-friendly sight. IMHO!

Well the Roo is awesome and the Silent Disco was definitely one of the coolest thinsg i did last year but its not their idea. I only even went becasue my friend form NY heard about it and told me to go. He said there were several clubs in NY that have been doing it for a few years.
But it is fun as hell. i was there until dawn last year. The last DJ on Friday night was fucking awesome.

^That's what I had always thought was going on until I tried it last year. Multi tracks would be the way to go.

That's a cool video. My friend was at Karl Denson in 2005. He said when they played their last jam he turned his head to look outside and it was sunrise. He said he was like, "What the fuck!?". He also said after the show everyone was going to the silent disco but he didn't know what it was. When he got there and saw everyone dancing he laughed for a little while and went to bed.
Doesn't everyone sing out of tune when they can't hear their own voices?
HAHAHAHA!!!!! It's funny how that happens. If you can't hear your voice at all you are most likely going to sing out of key. I think this rule stands for everyone, even proffessional singers.
