On this day in 1979, it's ‘Disco Demolition Night’ at Comiskey Park, where the White Sox and Tigers are playing a doubleheader. The plan is to blow up a bunch of disco albums between games, but it goes horribly wrong when fans become unruly and rush the field, forcing the White Sox to forfeit the second game. #monstersofrock #rock #rockandroll #live #radio #otd #video #metal #onthisday #concert #classicrock #heavymetal #music #rocknroll #album #discosucks | MONSTERS OF ROCK

#OnThisDay in 1979, disco went up in smoke as 60,000 baseball fans turned up to a Chicago White Sox game to burn disco records and cry “Disco Sucks!”. The infamous Disco Demolition Night, with racist and homophobic undertones, was led by rock DJ Steve Dahl who was aggravated by Saturday Night Fever and the mainstream success of disco. | 4:3
