My Daughter wanted some special light for xmas (branded to her fav band) that they all hold up above there heads at k-pop concerts lol what happened to just bouncing around in the mosh pit having the time of your life huh lol.

Although this band was classified as a "disco" act, there was nothing pre-packaged or overly commercial about them. They were true masters of R&B, soul, and funk. The term "Blue-Eyed Soul" was made for these guys, though acts as far back as The Young Rascals also worked the territory.
