| Dr. Bon's 1970s Murder Mystery Party Game Choice: |
| Groovy Disco Party So you're either having or going to a '70s disco party, huh? Let's do this! The '70s was riddled with hippie culture with hoards of youth opposing the Vietnam War, nuclear weapons and big business. The environmentalist movement took off and the oil crisis causes by oil embargoes caused a recession. Technological advancements included the world's first general microprocessor, microwave ovens, very primitive personal computers, pocket calculators and consumer video games! There was a rise of soft rock/pop rock music with artists such as The Carpenters, Ray Stevens, Elton John, etc. |
| Groovy '70s Party Themes In the '70s, the gatherings tended to be more informal - especially among the youngsters. Play '70s disco music - you can access the XM Radio channel or your local satelite / cable television typically has a disco channel. Or purchase a fun party mix. Play Saturday Night Fever on the television without the sound for a fun ambiance. For a birthday, make a round cake with yellow icing and use piping (black) to draw a smiley face. Decorate with lava lamps, '70s posters (Farrah, Mr. Natural,etc.), beaded curtains, black lights, incense and do NOT forget to have a disco ball! |
