March Disco - Friday 30th March 2007

“I’ve found a place, where we can boogie…”

For the crew at Attention Deficit Disco, this summer’s been a blast.

We love A.D.D. and judging by the crowds of sexy boys and saucy girls that have graced our dance floors, so do you. Finally, we’ve found a place, where we can boogie.

On Friday 30th March, you came along and celebrated all that is great about summer! The sun, the beach and tropical nights. The boys, the girls, and the summer sounds that only the DJ's of A.D.D. can create. DJs Scott Pullen, Adrian Allan and Scotty J.

"Whether you're gay or straight, being queer is a state of mind...and if there's one thing we gotta say, it's that there's no such thing as an ordinary person." (Ana Matronic, Scissor Sisters, Sydney, 5th February 2007)

The Chinese say it's the year of the pig, we say it's the year of Attention Deficit Disco! There's no place like Sydney, there's no time like summer, and there's no club like A.D.D.

Friday 23rd February is m.A.D.D.i Gras Disco. Celebrating the final big week of Mardi Gras celebrations it was a massive party and free A.D.D. cd giveaway. DJs Dolls House, Grant Foley and Adrian Allan.
