*** Frequently Asked Questions ***

Q: There will be more than disco music played?
A: There will be no disco music played there. Only EDM.

Q: What if I can't make the roving portion of the Silent Disco by 6:45 pm
A: Come to the party after 8 pm at VFW 6420 Orchard Ave, Takoma Park, MD
20912

Q: What should we do about food?
A: It's "Food Truck Friday" at the start location if you're doing the
roving portion of the silent disco. There are also a number of great
restaurants in the Takoma area. Otherwise, the VFW allows food to be
brought in and consumed on premises.

Q: What time will we have to leave the venue if we want to catch the very
last Metrorail train from Takoma to my stop?
A: The walk is 19 minutes, so would have to leave at 2 am to catch the
departing 2:32 am train. There are a couple of stations where you could
catch the last 3:21 am train leaving from Takoma (like Forest Glen), so you
may want to check wmata.com to be sure.

Q: Do we have to start at the starting location or can we just join in
later at the end location? We were going to get dinner in the city
beforehand.
A: You can just come to the end location if you like. Also, please be aware
there will be food trucks at the starting location for "Food Truck Friday",
so if you wanted you could eat at the starting location as well. Come after
8 pm.

Q: I don't get how everyone moves together after the initiation point
A: Everyone is in one group and follows the leader to the destination.
Avoid traffic, avoid dancing into people minding their own business.
Everyone is on foot and dances their way to the final destination.

Q: How we get back back to our cars If we don't wanna stay til 3-4am?
A: There are a couple of options: 1) Walk back to the starting location
and/or the Metro rail before it closes; 2) Take a Taxi or Uber for that
same distance (ride shares encouraged); 3) Skip the roving portion and meet
(and park) at the end point (but you would miss out on a good amount of
fun). The start location is 1 mile away from the end location. The start
location is very close to the Takoma Metro Station.

Q: Does silent mean no music?
A: No. It means everyone is listening to the same music on silent disco
headphones.

Q: Where will the vibrating floors be?
A: At the final destination (courtesy of Audio Feel Ya!!!)

Q: Should we bring warm clothes?
A: Yes! The DJ and vibrating floors will be in an outdoor area of the
venue. There will be fire, but you may want to make sure you have layers to
keep you warm!
