ballina street festival 2005

I went along to be a marshall.
While being fitted with the rig, I asked the troupe leader, "What am I supposed to be?"; He replied, "A ceremonial cow. That means you moooove a lot."

and that, plus directions on my position in the troupe, was the sum total of my preparation for this.

Sure, but I doubt if they'd let me into The George with it. I mean, aside from the physical clearance issues.

If you happen to meet a nicens boy named Baby Tuckoo, it's time to bail.

How the hell can you have a Mardi Gras parade in July??

We're Irish

We can have Mardi Gras any time we please. It just means "excuse to party", right?

Do try to keep up.

The Dragon is the new place to be. (http://www.queerid.com/html/directory_entry.asp?entry_id=dragon)
You would fit right in, with the interior design. And most of the drag queens would be quite vicious at being upstaged.

When I read "I went along to be a marshall," my first thought was that you dressed up as a guitar amplifier.
