  And Herewith Follows a List of other Banned Band Songs... 'Devil' Cast Out of Pr. William Some people just don't know how to have a good time, and some people have too much time on their hands. But enough about me... Apparently, the C.D. Hylton High School Marching Band, an invitee to play at the Atlanta, Georgia based Peach Bowl, has had to change its prepared set list.

In order to reclaim some of that freedom and democracy, here, with a tip of the hat to Dennis Brown, Jason Joy, James Wingate, Joseph I. Breen, and Geoffrey M. Shurlock is a list of other compositions which shall no longer be publicly performed at or near governmentally funded assemblies, including but not limited to sock hops, dances, so-called "mixers" and/or proms:
