Disco fever is making a comeback in Austin.

Cedar Street Courtyard, 208 W. Fourth St., is the site of a “silent disco” tonight from 9 p.m. to 3:30 a.m.

What’s a silent disco? Disc jockeys serve up music available only via headphones given to concert-goers.

No headphones, no tunes.

The goal, according to the City of Austin, is to help mitigate sound complaints that have been coming from some downtown residents.

City staffers will be on hand tonight to see how things go. Stay tuned.

They moved into an entertainment district. Tell them to wear their own damned headphones.
