By now it was 1990 music and styles had begun to
change, Soul and Disco had become R & B, Rap and Dance.
The Video Disco commanded the stage with its size
and sound, Andy Mac continued to excite and entertain and he would put on shows at the local football
ground Crystal Palace, promoting guest DJ's from Capital Radio.
Radio DJ's Pat Sharp, Mick Brown and Neil Fox all performed with The Video Disco.

Andy played at many venues through out London, generally though
it would have to be the larger hotels as only they would have function rooms that could accommodate the sheer size of the
equipment. The Video Disco would take approximately 3 hours to setup and special arrangements had to be made for the use of
pyrotechnics.
