The city Office of Arts and Culture is throwing a Donna Summer roller-skating bash on City Hall Plaza Friday evening.
The Donna Summer Memorial Roller Disco Tribute Party, which pays tribute to the Dorchester disco diva, starts at 6 p.m. Skateless? Don't worry - there'll be a dance floor set up to bust a move on.

I wanna go
But I'll already be in the biggest gay place on earth on Friday.. Ptown.
But seriously.. dancing on brick. Reminds me of a rave I went to a long time ago at Great Woods (yes it was called Great Woods still). Dancing in a tent on the pavement. My ankles never hurt so much after that, especially after dancing to hard trance all night.
I still call it Great Woods...

You must bring skates, unless you don't
This is oddly worded:
"Attendees must provide their own skates or blades, or may rent them for free on-site."
Concrete not brick
FWIW: There is a large slab on concrete at City Hall which made the perfect surface for an impromptu roller rink! We'll do it again next year, promise :)
