Here is a pic of DJ Duke Edwards spinning at the old Coney Disco from my 1978 employee yearbook.
IIRC, he worked here during weekdays in the summer, but was a prime time DJ at WOKV (the 50,000 watt voice of Disco in the tri-state) for his regular gig.
For a short time it it was a disco. Dancing was a big thing in the 70s. I don’t have pictures but there was also a small stage show there shortly before it became a food stand as well.
I vaguely recall someone once saying the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack* would play in The Beast's line queue and everybody would start dancing. Can you dig it?
*Or at least, "Staying Alive"
New blog post is up. A document in photos of an area that will look very different next year.

My vote would be to have all ET lights go out starting at 11. Then the lights slowly start lighting up from the bottom. 1/2 way up at 11:30 and the star lights up at midnight.
I have a feeling 2019 will be the last year of Diamondback being the Tallest, Fastest, Coaster to ever strike Kings Island. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
