Since the Walkman hit the streets we have all seen private dance parties at bus stops or in the grocery store, but some New Orleanians are taking that experience to another level. Fox 8 looked at what it looks like when the whole party is dancing to the music in their own silent disco. Record spinning, Pop-locking, head bobbing and hip shaking are everything you expect to see at a dance party, but the biggest thing you hear appears to be missing, but it isn't really missing at all.

Al "Go-DJ Dat Boi" Mitchell said, "When they get here it's like wow. That's their first words." Mathew Lacey said, "It's different. It's an experience." Naomi Galatas said, "I'm really having a good time. It's a little chilly, but it's good fresh air and it's good music so it's fun." Under a moonlit sky, the courtyard of a Marigny club became a Silent Disco. So it's not exactly "silent," but if you want to know what people are dancing to you have to either rely on some relayed performances or rent the wireless headphones that will allow you to switch between the two DJ sources and control the volume.

Then it's off to the dance floor. The night we visit the selections are Hip Hop and Reggae followed by top 40. DJ Dat Boi CEO of Silent Disco Plugged-In explains, "It's two DJs, two mc's, 4 DJs if you want. The Silent Disco ends up being like three parties in one. You can listen to two different kinds of music or just take the headphones off and talk. First timer, Galatas, thinks that is one of the best features. She said, "It's totally different because it's not as loud. You can actually speak to someone. Take your headphones off and communicate with another person. In clubs, downtown and all those areas you can't really talk."

Matthew Lacey has attended before. Lacey said, "They are all playing, all at the same time you know and whoever you're digging at the moment you can listen to." He does miss some things about a traditional speaker system. He said, "The vibrations from the bass, everyone feeling the same thing at the same time." He still thinks it's fun. "It's good every now and then. Change is good," He said.
