Hard Hitting Report from the T-P

Hot on the heels of our discussion at Rising Tide III where the fall of print journalism was a hot topic, the Times-Picayune’s Angus Lind comes up with a real scoop: “Deep Float checks in with the scoop on a new Uptown route”. That’s right, apparently Krewe D’etat will be changing it’s start time and route and begin at Jefferson, roll up Magazine, turn on Napoleon and then continue on the original St. Charles route. Furthermore, Muses may take the same route.

Wow.

This is a big change. Wonder how those folks below Napoleon that have never had to deal with the parade madness so directly will react (with the notable exception of Sunday morning’s Thoth)

It makes me think we should consider a Carnival Panel at Rising Tide IV where we can discuss weighty issues like:

  • Changes in the Uptown route
  • The loss of the Mid-City route
  • ladder etiquette or lack thereof
  • Sidewalk side or neutral ground side?
  • etc.

Time to crank up some Professor Longhair. After all Krewe of OAK is doing its Midsummer Mardi Gras on Saturday.
