CLOUD NINE (DICTIONARY DEFINITION):Informal , A state of great happiness , Used in the phrase on Cloud Nine. [Originally on Cloud Seven ; the phrase is perhaps related to "in the seventh heaven"] (in some Jewish and Muslim literature the seventh and final heaven is the abode of God.)

Steve Duncan started Cloud Nine Disco in 1978, named by a work colleague whilst serving a four year Electrical apprenticeship in HM Dockyard in Portsmouth. Having built up a large record collection and being a drummer in a local band , music has played a large part in the development of this disco. In 1978 the advent of Saturday Night Fever and Grease being some of the most successful musical films ever took Discotheques to a new level in the UK and now is an industry that is worth £1.5 Billion pounds per annum in the UK alone. As of JUNE 1998 , Cloud Nine is the veteran of over 1,200 discos performing as far away as the Far East , Middle East and USA to a very wide ranging audience. Steve Duncan has also presented radio programmes for local area networks as well as Hospital Radios.

There are over 862 Lights on the show. There are over 35 microprocessors (computers) to run the show. Cloud Nine carries over 13,000 tracks of music to every function. There are 135 motors on the show, they either cool the equipment down or move the mirrors on the lighting effects left, right, up and down, or to change the colours of the lighting effect, or to change the patterns the effect makes, known as Gobo's. The whole show weighs 1,226 Kg or 2,697.2 lb or simply 1.2 tonnes! If each core of cable used on the show were laid end to end it would measure 4.72 Km or 2.93 miles ! There is also 4,800 Watts of amplification. If all the lights were turned on at once it would require 84 Amps of power to run , but don't worry special circuits prevent this from occurring all that is needed is a standard 13 Amp supply!
