It has been 35 years since the Chicago White Sox held "Disco Demolition Night" at Comiskey Park, when fans were asked to bring their disco record to be destroyed in an on-field explosion between games of a doubleheader between the White Sox and Detroit Tigers. After the destruction, thousands of fans stormed the field and remained there, forcing the White Sox to forfeit Game 2 of the doubleheader.

Now, the minor-league Charleston RiverDogs in Charleston, S.C., will try to recapture the magic with "Disco Demolition 2: You Better Belieb It." The event, to be held on Saturday, will feature the destruction of Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus music and paraphernalia. The RiverDogs will play the Augusta GreenJackets, and the destruction will take place after the game, so there will be no Game 2 to forfeit.

"Like so many, we have taken special exception to Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus's music along with his numerous run-ins with the law and her controversial performances," RiverDogs General Manager Dave Echols said in a news release. "'Disco Demolition 2' is dedicated to the eradication of their dread musical disease, like the original Disco Demolition attempted to do. We are going to take Bieber and Cyrus's merchandise and memorabilia, put it in a giant box, and blow it to smithereens. It is all in good fun, and we guarantee there won't be a forfeit of a game."

Fans who bring Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus items to the game will receive a $1 ticket. And let's hope that fans of Bieber and Cyrus will receive free tissues to dry their eyes after witnessing the destruction, which probably will take place after their bedtimes.

The bulldozers have been called off, at least for now, after preservation activists convinced a county judge to halt the demolition of a historic building at the Arizona state fairgrounds on Wednesday.

Maricopa County Superior Court Judge David O. Cunanan granted a request for a temporary restraining order, blocking the State Fair from razing the structure. A hearing that could determine the fate of the building has been scheduled for next week.

Known as the State Fair Civic Building, the art deco facility dates to 1938 and was constructed as part of a federal public-works program designed to put people to work during the Great Depression. Over the years, it's been used as offices, a haunted house and a mineral and gem exhibit.

The Arizona Exposition and State Fair Board, a self-sustaining state agency, wants to remove the dilapidated building to make room for more paved vendor space. Fair officials estimate it would cost up to $1 million to make the building usable to the public again, a figure preservation advocates hotly dispute.

Jennifer Boucek, an attorney and director of Preserve Phoenix, filed the lawsuit on behalf of Betty Ann Moore, a nearby resident. Boucek has pleaded with the fair to delay the demolition so alternative options can be explored, calling the building one of the most significant on the complex.

Phoenix's Historic Preservation Commission was scheduled to meet Wednesday afternoon to consider beginning the process to create a protective zoning overlay for all or part of the fairgrounds, a move that could further delay the demolition.
