Top ten (both good and bad) high school memories – Go! (in no particular order) extra challenge (try to name a song to go with each memory!)
1. dancing slow dances in the big gym after the basketball games…. Unchained Melody, the Righteous Brothers
2. stealing hay and fruit for the autumn ball with Pam when we were juniors…Hanky Panky, Tommy James and The Shondells
3. graduation night [i didn't shed a tear], going to salt lake for dinner afterwards, staying out all night long [on whisky hill] and meeting everyone at lucille’s the next morning for breakfast…. jose and edward had monster hangovers! In the Year 2525, Zaeger and Evans
4. mr. griggs any song as long as he had a copywrited copy of it
5. wirth dropping his trumpet while riding on the hood of charlie’s car after band practice [it got run over] and picking it up [it was squashed flat] and saying “they don’t make these things like they used to”… The Stars and Stripes Forever {*edit* charlie said it was actually leonard’s car, not his}
6. getting shit-faced drunk on T night when i was a freshman and randy driving me around until i sobered up [kind of] because he knew my dad would kill me if i went home drunk. worse the next day with my first hangover cleaning the school under the direction of the senior girls. Wild Thing, Troggs
7. teen dances at the summitt. Monday Monday, the Mommas and the Papas
8. mixed chorus singing the Lord’s Prayer at the chorus festival acappella and getting a “1″. mabel said we sounded like angels.
9. discovering there was music other than bubblegum…. Penny Lane, the Beatles
10. dragging main…. before school, after school, day time, night time, anytime! White Room, Cream. Whole Lotta Love, Led Zeppelin
oh i love high school memories…
dragging main! LOL in butte???!?!
jess ~ no, i was born in butte… i grew up in eureka, ut. which except for being smaller is probably like the same place… i’m afeared that those song titles may actually give away my age, ya think?
Oooo….good post. I may have to steal the list for a future post of my own. Found you through SHSNE.
And by the titles of the songs, I’d guess you were 25. Am I right? Am I also your most favorite commenter? Though so
*thought
Yeah, your is still better than mine….cooler music.
