Nola.com is the Times Picayune - what a great name - site and is rife with video from recent parades. On Fat Tuesday they promise . . .

- Watch Zulu from Orleans Ave. - 8 a.m.
- Watch Rex roll Uptown - 10 a.m.

You'll notice that the above photo captures one of the many marching clubs that entice parade watchers by second lining ahead of the floats. These clubs are the model for Shreveport's Blanc et Noir Marching Society. Maybe one day B & N will be invited to parade on St Charles Avenue.
