I have two memories of The Alibi: 

 1-Dancing with Anita to "Disco Inferno", all the while thinking that I'm not really in my element...but I did like girls....and that is where girls went.

 2-Saw a girl sitting alone at a table, and thought I'd ask her to dance.  She said NO.....

3- Ordering gallons of beer.  They were called Supa Beers....(what did Supa stand for? Super?  I never 'got' that.

I don't recall if The Trammps ever made the Star Wars, but in a way, I sorta expect they did, since back in the 70's, most groups going into Star Wars were extremely current groups....
