<p>Hmmmm, interesting. I thought school dances ending with STH was one of the foundations of life. </p>
Do school dances still end with Stairway to Heaven?
<p>Hell, do they still have school dances?</p>

If that played today, the kids would all look at each other like "the dance is over?" and start to leave, as they'd figure that's just tunes for the tear-down crew.</p>

<p>I never went to a school dance. </p>
<p><br>
It was well entrenched still in the 80's when I was in HS. From what I heard the tradition was alive and well here in the 90's.<br>

ooooOOOOOOoooooh.</p>

<p>That would be why I'm not familiar with the practice. I know the song, but I don't think it was ever played at any school dances I went to.</p>

Huh. I graduated in 90. The dances I went to played music you could, you know, dance to. <img alt="dontknow.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/dontknow.gif"></p>
