Hated the stuff for 20 years, but nowadays I view a bit differently
a lot of that disco stuff was really killer funk stuff (Chic is anything but "easy" stuff to play)

Disco made the hard bass lines very popular. Funk gave us the bass line, disco made it popular. The 70's gave us overuse of the hi-hat......

It's only excessive if you don't care for sex with multiple women at an altitude of 40,000 feet.

^ Actually the band was terrified of flying and mostly drank, smoked and hoped to land safely in the next American city where the whoring could continue.

HAR!  Mind you, there was some glam that I was OK with, Freddie Mercury pulled the trick off very well, and Eno backed up his weirdness with some amazing music!  

Still some of the fashions left me cold!!  I quite enjoy David Bowie but can hardly stand to look at this outfit...
