9-midnight? Go, ffs! It's three fucking hours, if it's really that bad it's not exactly going to be a long ordeal, and you might really enjoy yourself.

If you already have a date, go. No woman deserves to be stood up, ever.
Other than that, it depends on what you're looking for. If you just want to have fun, take someone who makes you laugh and let the evening take you where it will. You'll be dressed up, everyone will be determined to have a good time, and depending on where you go to school, you'll be able to get into some awesome after-parties.
If you want a "special" and very romantic evening, you probably won't get much out of it unless you take your girlfriend or someone you like a lot and plan on asking out. It's impossible for the occasion to be special when you have anywhere from 50-400 other people around while you try to sweet-talk someone into liking you.
If you just wanna get laid, you have two options. If you want a certain girl, take her. It helps. If you just wanna get laid in general, skip the dance. There will be plenty of drunk loose girls at after-parties.
I don't regret not going to mine, but the people I've talked to who went said they all enjoyed it. I can't speak for the experience you'll have, since we don't go to the same school or the same dances, but you really have very little to lose by going.

Go. I didn't really want to go, mainly because I felt really weird going (bad haircut). I had an awesome time. I take it you have already paid? Just go. Backing out would be a complete jackass move.
I voted no. I've got no intention of going to my prom next year. I've never seen the point in any of the school dance type things, and the few I went to I hated... Although that could just be because the ones my school puts on in our gym invariably suck.
Although, since you already have a date, I don't think there's really much you can do without making a total ass of yourself. Have fun at the prom.

Go for it no point letting a lass down, get pissed beforehand have a good time nothing to loose but time and even if it sucks you have mates their right? Pick fights with all the people you hated in shcool with the knowledge you wont ever see most any of them ever again bah whish we had a prom hated nearly everyone in school would have been a good excuse 
If you already asked a girl to go w/ you; then you pretty much have to.
If you didnt, just go to a party outside the school. thats what i did. accomplishes the same thing

Don't bend to peer pressure (except, of course, mine)! If you don't want to go, don't. I'm not going to my prom. Dances bore me to tears. Sure, I get the weird eye when it slips that I'm not going, but whatever, I'll do something actually FUN on that day. If, however, you do decide to go, come to that conclusion prior to lock-in.
My prom was a disaster and all the stupid high school drama crap that started because of prom didn't let up until this past January. So unless you are 100% sure your date won't: 1. start going out with another guy before prom when she knew you had plans to ask her out, 2. force you to allow her boyfriend to tag along the whole night, 3. toss you to the side when ever a slow dance occurs, 4. start a fight between you and her boyfriend that leads to physical violence, then don't go to prom.
And yes that's a short summary of what happened to me at my prom, don't even get me started with what happend after prom and the following eight months...
