I may have been there in the 60's but I don't remember them much (man).

I do remember the projected rotating liquid gel light show though.

Now I'm in a retro band, I thought it would be fun to have such a backdrop. Anyone know if modern day equivalents exist?

Do you mean the old oil wheel thing? I'm sure I've seen them on ebay, brand new.

It was fun, if a little bit dangerous...[/quote]
Ah, yes, I remember doing that same thing too.

After the first time we carried a fire extinguisher.

It occurred to me this afternoon, that a modern way (and less of a fire hazard) would be to stick a projector on to a laptop that's playing music with the psychedelic patterns you get with various media players.[/quote]

try and download some original ones if you can/they exist. The generic ones are good but EVERYONE will spend at least two songs nudging each other and saying "Eh up, thats media player that is"!
