I wish I could have seen THAT! I remember going to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. I took dozens of pictures. I went home to show people the incredible party by showing the pictures and I realized they were terribly inadequate. Nothing seems to capture the noise, the colors and the rhythm and this particular party seems to have gone way over the top and you were right there. So exciting!

I went to the Leather Ball about 10 yrs. ago. You're right, no words can explain the extravaganza. You should go to a regular Mardi Gras Ball to see the comparason. Hmmm, never mind. They are among the most boring events I've ever attended. You should see the costume competition on Bourbon St. on Mardi Gras day. The gay community makes the most gorgeous costumes ever imaginable. I used to live in the French Quarter (I was raised there) and see the costumes every year. Now that I've become a suburbinite, I can't deal with the crowds, so I do Mardi Gras in Metairie. Big yawn.
