The only songs with an order are those of the High-Holy Canon. They are played in the order written above, at the end of every dance. (Other than the period of 2000-2003, Forever Young is only played at the last dance).

(Note: At Session 1, 2004, they misplayed the High-Holy Canon at the first dance. I personally cannot remember what they did wrong, but there was much turmoil as a result. -Steve Norum, Carlisle '03-1, '04-1, '05-2)

    (reply-note: there was a song cut short and everyone sat down. It was quite dramatic. -yoda, carlisle 2002-05 session 1)

Forever Young,

- AB (SomnusLupus)

Jump Jive and Wail was in there for a while, although they did not play it as a result of serious reorganization (e.g. mauling) of canon in 2005.

- yoda (AKA man in the princess dress).

At the third dance at carlisle 2005 session 2 one of the students had an asthma/panic attack, cutting it short. the student recoverd at the hospital that night, and Stairway to Heaven and American Pie were played at the end of the talent show, with everyone comeing down and danceing on stage.

at the second dance, there was a serious dirth of canon played in the first hour and a half, so 5 or 6 students, including myself, moved to the area infront of the stage, and started doing the time warp to 'take me out' in protest. as a result, the next song played was the time warp by Mike G. and RA Pete (both my RAs (mike 2nd and pete 1st) for for camp that summer)

-Schuyler(tall kid with funny tshirts, a.k.a. crunk, andre the giant, and sky)

Trust me: I was there. And BTW, they've been playing Zoot Suit Riot because Chris White wants to give his students sommat to swing to.
