The Disco Expressions show/prom night event last weekend was a huge success. Basically, it was a concert at the Houston Continental Club featuring 70’s disco and 80’s new-age/punk/pop and the audience was invited to dress in a prom theme.

Of course you can’t have a prom without adult supervision.

Opening act was Molly and the Ringwalds for the 80’s portion of the night.

And a rare sight ladies and gentlemen. A candid photo of Dekan Ringwald!

That’s right, he’s not staring directly at the camera! This must be what those Planet Earth camermen felt like when they captured those rare images of the Snow Leopard in the wild.

Next up, Disco Expressions playing all your 70’s disco favorites.

It’s hard to tell if Jim is about to give me the OK sign, or if he’s about to flick me like a bug.

Paul was in rare form

All in all, another excellent evening. I wanted to shoot audience pictures to capture those in attendance wearing their prom dresses and tuxedos, but they didn’t come out so well. I don’t do well shooting with a flash and the club is too dark to shoot without one.

I did, however, get one outstanding shot.

    Vice-Principal Henkel looks menacing! One sure wouldn’t want to tangle with him!

    That pic of Greg arouses scary memories of Vice-Principal Seidensticker from Webster Intermediate. But Principal Bet Anders at McWhirter Elementary was rumored to have a paddling machine in her office.
