#high school dance

[appleciderjulie]

just slow-danced with a guy at a high school dance today, it felt weird, especially being aro/ace. Like, it was pretty clear he liked me, cuz his friends were cheering him on n’ stuff. I think he was a year older than me, if i remember correctly? He was nice, and it was kinda fun, but y’know. It’s just an odd feeling knowing someone feels one way towards you and you will never be able to feel that way back.

Uhh anyways thanks for listening to my rant

band gets

Hog Heaven was a band of some renown that Archie theoretically could have booked in 1972. I do not think they would have been interested in playing to a high school dance, and I guess in this narrative they weren't. New form of an old band, The Shondells minus Tommy James. In terms of the charts they were "bubbling under", so there are bigger acts to get. Or maybe there aren't.

According to wikipedia, 1972 is the year Poison Ivy met the future members of The Cramps -- and they started playing in 1974. Here, "top group" has to be redefined anyways -- sure, they are a "top group" for their "cult following", and supposedly Big in Europe. But, I would say a big get nonetheless. I mean, the best my high school could do was a group made up of a few former students from a few years ago, who had a rejected demo tape to their name.

Midvale High gets the bigger names.

1965. We are a year off from the prefab band's debut. Surely the wheels are in motion.

Noted: Moose was a Smashing Pumpkins fan in 1970.

[cocoelle]

Rocco: Shit I remember Kurtis now, he was a nice kid when he was with my brother. I didn't see him much after my brother left and moved to San MyShuno. Always wondered what happened to him.

Austin: His family moved to San MyShuno a year or so after your brother moved there. That's where we met each other.

Alton: Did you want to go outside for a bit to get some fresh air?

Briana: Sure I'd like that.

Alton: I really like you a lot Briana and I wanted to ask you a question.

Briana: I like you a lot too Alton. What question did you want to ask me?

Alton: Uhmm......I wanted to ask you if you wanted to be my girlfriend?

Rocco: Excuse me for a minute Austin, I'm just going to find Briana to let her know we're leaving as soon as the dance is over.

Austin: Sure no problem, was nice chatting with you.

Rocco: Nice chatting with you too.

Briana: Yes I want to be your girlfriend Alton.

Alton: Cool. Maybe we......

Rocco: You two inside, NOW! Briana we will talk later.

Briana: OMG dad, we weren't doing anything.

Rocco: Just go inside and sit where I can see you.

Briana: I'm so embarrassed, I'm so so sorry about my father.

Alton: My dad probably would have done the same thing Briana, so don't worry about it.

Briana: Thanks Alton.

Rocco: Shit, I definitely think we are gonna have to keep an eye on those two haha.

Austin: I'll have a long talk with him when we get home, he's really a good kid.

Rocco: Sorry didn't mean to say differently. I just remember being that age around girls, so I automatically assume boys are as bad as I was haha.

everyone talks about their high school theater departments being self-serious and over-the-top but nothing will top my highschool's dance majors wearing straight jackets and doing a showcase dance to 'chop suey' in 2012 or 2013, directed by the dance teacher herself

“H. TOSH FACES ARSON CHARGE,” Hamilton Spectator. March 14, 1931. Page 18. --- Burlington Man Accused Over Appleby Fire --- High School Students Held At-Home Yesterday ---- From Our Own Correspondent Burlington, March 16 Henry Tosh, aged 36 and married, was arrested by Chief Constable Smith yesterday on a charge of arson. He appeared in police court this morning to answer to the charge and was remanded for a week. Crown- Attorney W. Dick appeared for the crown.

The charge arose out of fire occurred on the property of G. W. Breckon, of Appleby on February 20 last, when the house, occupied by Tosh who had been employed by Mr. Brekon for the past two years, was burned to the ground. At the time the fire occurred, a meeting of the Young People’s league, of the Church at Appleby, was being held, and by the time assistance could be obtained it was too late to save either the house or its contents. According to the story by Chief Smith, the residents nearby took up a collection and the sum of $126 was handed over to Tosh. In addition, he was also given furniture and clothing to replace that destroyed in the fire. A claim for $600 was also made to the insurance company on a  policy covering the contents of the building, which was paid. The building itself was not insured.

Following the fire, Chief Smith became auspicious of the circumstances surrounding its origins. He notified the marshal's department and Edward Jordan, member of the fire marshal's staff, was sent to Burlington. The two officers carried on an investigation which resulted in Tosh's arrest yesterday.   High School At-Home Members of the staff and the students of the Burlington high school were at home last evening to recent graduates and the members of the high school board. The evening was spent in dancing and a most enjoyable time was the result. The auditorium was beautiully decorated and the vari-colored dresses of the ladies added greatly to the appearance of the large hall. Numerous novelty dances were held which also helped to make the affair a huge success. Graduates of the school who are attending university were home for the occasion Phil Gage's orchestra supplied the music for the dancers. 

Another feature was when the boys of the lower school were employed as waiters during the time for refreshments. The boys presented a very natty appearance, being attired in white shirts and trousers and a green sash.

Mission Starts A mission which will last for one week opens to-morrow in St. Luke's church under the auspices of the Church Army. The mission to-morrow morning when of of the Church Army will preach The missioners will preach at the evening. These services will be services for women and for men arranged. 

The regular services will be held in the other churches of the town to-morrow. In Trinity church, the preacher both morning and evening, will be H. P. Gundy, B.A.,  gold medalist and honor graduate of Toronto university and Victoria college, who will speak on Temperance in Ontario. The ministers of the other churches will occupy their own pulpits.
