I am guessing 1996 only because Kiss from a Rose was huge in the Winterguard circut and I heard You Oughta Know for the first time on the way to a competition...

 

Im a band geek myself, but my best friends were on guard.

Band geek here too...but our WG was made mostly up of band geeks! I was REALLY bad but it was so much fun!

Gotta be. I was 14 and in drivers ed- crazysexycool was the CD to buy on our voyage into the big city.

 

 

Yea, I think I have to retract my earlier statement, I remember singing Waterfalls at Adventure Island all day long with my BFF.

2001 - but we used to have a fifth year of high school in Ontario (for university bound students), so for the purpose of this poll I suppose I should say 2000.

Do they have Kindergarten in Canada or just start with Grade 1? 

 

(For some reason I remember them talking about this on Kids of Degrassi street 110 years ago)

OMG Kids of Degrassi Street lmao!!!!!!! We *are* old.

Hope POF doesn't mind me answering on behalf of Canada and saying that yes, there is kindergarten.

I was born in Alberta. I went to kindergarten and then pre-grade 1, and then grade 1. There was actually a grade called pre-grade 1. Odd.

1999  (insert Prince song here)

Thankfully that wasn't our class song! Was it yours?

We actually had 2 - that was one, and "Time of Your Life" by Green Day was the other.

Both pretty bad...

We had the Green Day song too! and so did DH's class at another school.  I agree, it was craptastic.

Yeah DH was SURE he was gonna marry another Music Ed person... THAT didnt happen haha. But he doesnt teach anymore:( he decide he liked flying more than music I guess... He used to work with the North Lincoln High School band in NC as well as East Lincoln. He misses it though. Keeps trying to get with a school in the area to help, but no dice... Hes a great trumpet player though. I wish I still played, but in all honesty I was just much better at conducting and percussion than I was the flute.

Did you go to school in NC? I went to HS in Elizabeth City. I *think* I have heard of those two schools but there was also a Lincoln HS in Tallahasse (FL) where I went to college, so I might be mixing them up.
