When was Jimmy King of Mardi Gras
Moderator: SMLCHNG
There is a little blurb in a story called "New Orleans Margaritaville" by Sunshine Smith in the Nov. Dec. 1992--Vol 8 #6 Cocotel.
quote:
In 1983 Jimmy served as the King of Krewe of Clones, a parade held by the Contemporary Art Museum from 1981 to 1984. This parade was held a week prior to Mardi Gras, and I'm told it was quite cleverly put together. Certain unspeakables took place which were appropriate for the time, but in this day and age of over-sensitivity would probably be frowned upon.

Re: When was Jimmy King of Mardi Gras
I believe the day is the Parrothead handbook in Beaches, Boats, Bars, and Ballads....that picture is there with a caption!
"The whole damn world's gone crazy.
The moon is jumpin' over the cow.
How can you help but, not love the now?"
