It was such an ABBAsolutely Fun Night!
by Aspie4ABBA on 3/18/24House of Blues San Diego - San DiegoRating: 5 out of 5The pros outweigh the cons with this particular night. The only con was we were allowed on stage for 2 of the songs at a time and we had to wait for others to have a turn. The DJ was on fire all night long! This guy in a referee shirt was one of the most High Energy DJ's I have seen a LONG TIME! That was a major plus to me. I loved his dancing antics and getting the crowd all riled up! You rock brother! Major Pros- TONS OF ABBA songs all night long including: If It Wasn't for the Nights and When I Kissed the Teacher. A few cons- playing some modern hip hop was a turn-off for me. I wasn't crazy about the concrete floor, but the energy of the crowd was incredible. I know a LOT of people give these events (Gimme Gimme Disco) very bad reviews, but I've been to 6 this year and they are always mega-packed! This one was no exception. I would have worn shorts if it wasn't cold that night. It was like a sauna in that venue! I can't believe how many 18+ love the music of ABBA?!!! I'm in my 50's, so that would be expected but people years younger love ABBA?!! I love it! Some of the 70's outfits were really cool to see too. I loved the people wearing the platform shoes and platform go go boots too. I'm driving up to Fresno on Saturday (March 23, 2024) because of this event! Keep rockin the venues Gimme Gimme Disco, forever a fan in Downey, California! You made my entire year.
