Star Time #77: Fess Up to the Boogie


Cheer up, you baggy-eyed beauties, it's the 2nd Annual Star Time Disco Episode. (I've done it twice. So now it's annual. This is the first 2nd Annual thing in Star Time history.) Two hours of milkmaid-slingin' disco fun with just the barest hint of high concept. It's got some "dancefloor classics" (a phrase used redundantly a couple of times in this show), some slight obscurities, and two August Darnell sightings. That's the way Patty Melt would have wanted it. Have fun with this before the FDA gets a hold of the bacterial reports.
