Lyons Carnival Club 2008 Mardi Gras Day March
Another perfect weather day this year as The Lyons Carnival Club descended upon uptown for the 7:00am start of the Parade at Grits Bar... The Parade went fairly flawless, as usual Zulu had there annual break downs, stranding us at St. Charles and Jackson for about an hour and a half... but in the end we all made it to Molly's on the Market...

check out the video experience from the day...

The Rolling Elvi Muses Ball and Muses Parade Ride...
The Muses Parade was initially scheduled to ride on Thursday, the 31st... The threat of intense thunderstorms and tornadoes led to its postponement until Friday the 1st...  The Ball was still held as scheduled the night of the 31st and I must say was a thousand times more fun since we weren't all exhausted from the ride in the Parade... Friday night we rode... We had some initial technical problems with the new band wagon, but DC from a Clockwork Elvis made his debut sing Elvis Tunes as we rode... As usual, we had about 10-15 Strolling Elvi, due to flats, broken starters, and assorted other mishaps, but no major crashes... Also a shout to rookie Elvi Mike Mills, came in, rode, and had a blast... can't wait to see ya again at future events...

I think this little video sums up the overall experience...
