All Night Prom Party

Posted by Thor on May 2nd, 2008 13 Comments

So, maybe you noticed that the latest C-VILLE Weekly covered the all night long after prom party. While we are all for booze free underage high school shindigs, we did notice that the print version of the article highlighted one part of the story:

In order to best celebrate the substance-free event, the DJ plays classic odes to getting wasted, from Clapton’s “Cocaine” to Winehouse’s “Rehab.”

We talked to the DJ and he “never played any Clapton.” Oops.  While the All Night Long party was a dry event, what’s the deal with highlighting that part of the article or even bringing it up?  Isn’t all music about sex, drugs and money?

    :shock: It is? Dammit, I knew I was doing something wrong. So much for playing intricate instrumental pieces. Perhaps if I play my masturbation song on the mall, I will get all those things. Or maybe I’ll get arrested. Or shot.

    or “Too Drunk to Fuck” by the Dead Kennedys

    considering that they probably face expulsion if they’re caught boozing, “Too Fucked to Drink” may be more accurate

    At my high school prom, I died my hair red and black to match my red sharkskin japanese dinner jacket. My date had a hat made out of a dead bird. We invited the fifty year old hippy pot dealer to chaufer in the cheesy dated lincoln our group rolled in, and then snuck him in with us. It was at the St. Francis in SF, and next door to the ballroom was a nightclub called the Tonga Room, which had a fake lake in the middle of it. A lounge band floated around on a raft, and fake rain fell from the ceiling into the lake. We bailed prom and hung out like fifties mobsters, drinking highball tropical drinks, and generally making a nuisance of our drunken selves…

    Now its all about dissecting song lyrics for naughty words? Sad, really.
