( Please take note of new day and meet up times! )
This years theme: Shiny Unhappy People!
Come prepared to mock-mope and dress in your finest and shiniest! PVC! Lame'! Rubber! Plastic! Whatever!
Meet-up is 9 pm, at Flanagans, at 625 St. Phillip . Throw bags will be $7 and available there. Purchase of a throw bag will also include a slice of king cake. (The pieces with the King Cake baby in them will determine the King and Queen of the Krewe) Throw bag purchase is optional, you need not do so to walk in the parade.
This year, as every year, $1 of every bag sale will go to the LA-SPCA.
Buy your bag night of,
or pre-buy it now to make sure you get one!!
King Cake slices will be handed out PROMPTLY at 11 pm. After the crowning of King and Queen, the parade will line up. Once we are lined up, we will start our parade through the Quarter. The route is secret, known only in three parts by four mute monks in the mountains of Oaxaca.
The parade will end at The Whirling Dervish, 1135 Decatur for the Official Krewe after party at Assimilate!
Where decadent DJ's will spin the best in goth, industrial, darkwave, and old polka* music to keep you dancing till the wee hours!
