1:41 to always be disco every day you know what i mean like isn't that still there like you were there yeah where are you joe how old are you bro when i was a child they were still they were still reminiscent of that era where like you walk down and then like they're playing disco and everywhere and people were like there attending oh yeah dude in the 90s or was the music just playing it was playing it was playing all the time yeah and then people people looked like the 70s because you know like how like even though you're in the 90s or 80s right yeah people are still stuck in the 70s so then there's still a lot of people that dress that way huh did you just go to like a disco party maybe you went to a theme where did i end up yeah no i was walking with my parents or was it one of those times you're making up stories again no

2:31 he's not yours i'm on tour [Laughter] maybe you're watching a movie yeah yeah that happens it happens as a child like boogie nights with a huge dick in it exactly you guys don't remember going to vegas in the childhood and seeing people in disco clothes all the time and then like the disco music being played in like the the by the in the casino and all that and then it's like you're just like uh you don't know that that's the 70s and it's out of date but then even because dealers are wearing bell bottoms no but the people they're still dressed that way roller skating around for sure yeah with all the chips joe joe was just there was a theme party at the hotel that night was like man the 70s week wait was it happening all the time

3:23 as far as i remember i just remember a lot of people still dressed that way you should have went to the next hotel over there doing future theme oh maybe that's what it was here we are in vegas what an interesting find i just how old were you a child and i like how he doesn't give any sex i was a child you know how long you're a child for it was you're a child right late 80s early early 1990s right okay i do feel that vegas had this vibe of either cowboy or disco and then you go in and maybe like the whole ████ scarface kind of feel yeah yeah yeah yeah well they do have the rodeos like every year oh you're right at the uh mgm the disco road or yeah wherever well

4:13 south south south point is that what it is yeah they have the rodeo championship yeah yeah and i remember like when you go up and down the strip um everything was cowboy themed or like something like that or yeah you walk in and people are dressed up like like ████ saturday night fever ████ yeah yeah that's true yeah and i just thought that that was the you know when you watch movies about ████ disco and all that ████ you thought you were living in that area yeah and i was just like probably wearing my oshkosh ████ overalls and ████ like at uh circus circus yeah and i and then um i just missed that era of vegas my casino yeah well that's a little bit older but yeah oh cause that's like 80s or 60s right that was 60s 70s yeah yeah those ████ yeah that's my era vegas if i had to pick one do you remember that's the one you want sino bro dude we love everything about it yeah my
