If I was you, I'd vilifiy disco, both because it
already has no soul and because it was to the 70s what
boy groups (Backstreet Boys,et. al.) are to the 90s
and the aughts (that's a damn good name for this
decade.)

The punk movement is also going on in the 70s,
although it won't really have much momentum until
later on in the decade.  You could play with time a
little bit and have the players meet some people
who've recently died, for instance, or even Sid &
Nancy.

I was pretty young during the seventies and the only
thing I took away from it was that I hated "doing the
hustle" and that "Popcorn" is the only disco song
worth listening to.

Make sure to ridicule Gil Gerard while you're at it.
