I was about to jump up and down on seeing this, but then wondered if it could be an intentional apostrophe of omission - for the "graph" bit. But, then again, you don't see the word photo' so maybe that's way too charitable of me...

I think jumping is permitted
But isn't disco's allowed because otherwise the brain wonders what a discos is?

Wouldn't it be discoes if that were the case? Good grief, I don't know what the plural of disco is

Discos, OK. Agree there's something wrong with it though.

It's discotheques

Doh! Of course.
