shoes at art center

dr. john

our parade with muses on thursday went well. the shoes performed flawlessly and even handled the high winds that we encountered in the skyscraper district of new orleans. the butterflies had to cut out early because the wind was literally blowing them over. we've never encountered such strong winds in our seven years of parading with orpheus and muses. earlier in the week, we trained performers in the bywater neighborhood along the mississippi river and photographed the shoes along the seawall. after the parade, the shoes were placed in the front window of the new orleans contemporary art center where they looked splendid. the krewe of muses, the organization that runs the parade we're in, throws a great party afterwards that we got to attend. dr. john played several sets of great blues. we danced for hours.
