Due to popular demand 'All The Kit' has recently invested in Silent Disco Equipment and it is SUCH good fun. Just give your guests a set of headphones and the party can carry on all night with worrying about your neighbours. The text below is taken from a recent news article from the Telegraph: Silent discos, in which people dance to music played through personal headphones rather than speakers, was once the preserve of music festivals and special club nights. But now it is becoming increasingly popular at weddings and private parties, enabling teenagers to dance to their hearts' content without keeping their parents or the neighbours awake all night. And the fact that dancers can choose between two or more different channels (With our equipment you can choose up to 3 channels) means classical music fans waltzing to Schubert can in theory share the same floor as ravers partying to hard-core techno music. Its origins are said to date back to an obscure 1969 Finnish sci-fi film called Ruusujen aika, but its popularity has soared in Britain since it appeared at the 2005 Glastonbury music festival. James Johnson and his wife Kirsty, of Glasgow, had a silent disco at their wedding reception in Stobo Castle in the Scottish Highlands in June, with Motown on one channel for older guests and current hits aimed at the younger ones. Mr Johnson, a 27-year-old property manager, said: "It went down far better than I expected. I had my doubts about it, thinking it was just for younger people – you only ever see them at these festivals. "But everybody loved it, all our parents went daft on it. There was an old Auntie with her headphones, flicking the switch between channels and putting the volume up." Mollie Nock, 15, of Pangbourne in Berkshire, experienced her first silent disco, which she described as "a load of out of tune people singing and dancing", at the Reading Festival last weekend. She now plans to have one at her 16th birthday party in two months. "It was so much fun. I don't know why it's more interesting and enjoyable than a normal disco, but for some reason it seems less awkward," she said "It feels freer and nobody really cares. It's ridiculous because you could be listening to one channel and your friend to another and be dancing completely out of sync. It's hilarious. The equipment can be hired with or without one of the disco options shown on our disco pages. Some people prefer to start the party with conventional sound system and switch to headphones when you start worrying about neighbours. Some people may prefer to have the whole party as a silent disco and giggle at people singing out of tune! Prices From - The headphones can be hired individually with prices set at £2.99 per headset or £79.00 for a set of 30 headphones with three transmitters. The price reduces to £69.00 if hired with one of our disco systems. Do not hesitate to contact us if you hve any questions
