krewedelusion waits…
krewedelusion episode 14 planning for 2027 is under way!
“On January 23, 2027, krewedelusion plans to return to its traditional position in the New Orleans parading community as the final evening parade before the official municipal Mardi Gras season begins,” said Captain Oscar Diggs today, “While we will not be hitting the streets this year, we are in active conversations with the new Mayoral administration about our return.”
“We once again wish to extend our gratitude to the New Orleans City Council and appreciate the support of Council President Morrell and the Council as a whole,” Ms. Diggs continued, “they have collectively recognized krewedelusion’s contributions to the City of New Orleans with proclamations and resolutions that will forever stand as a testament to the success of our entirely reasonable and scientifically valid revolution. Our special paradigm, in this rapidly expanding thermodynamic Universe, consciously and intentionally empowers citizens to fully embrace their individual and collective constitutional, metaphysical and solipsistically improvised rights in a truly unique manner—one fueled by special freedoms that are the hallmark of New Orleanians!”
“On February 2, 2023, The New Orleans City Council listened attentively as our original foundational document, the ‘Declaration of Depends’ [Version 4.0 (currently under redaction for which global public input is currently being sought) is attached and can be found here: https://www.krewedelusion.net] was read into the public record,” she continued “and we look forward to the continued support of City Leadership.
In the meantime, as we work to rebuild, please visit our website, join the revolution and enjoy this excerpt from a prior press release that describes our unique approach to parading:
krewedelusion blossomed under what the Times-Picayune described as “a heady self-made philosophy and governance that declares the Big Easy the center of the Universe …” and [by giving their Ruler absolute power over absolutely everything] “takes the time-honored conceit of Carnival royalty to its most literal and absurd endpoint…[krewedelusion is] using the traditional structure of Mardi Gras as its own satirical platform. nola.com says krewedelusion is, “juuust right!”
As part of their mission to save the Universe, krewedelusion has since its inception put the “green” in purple, green & gold by using “mule-free, fuel-free” hand-operated floats, forbidding the use of toxic plastic beads, and encouraging revelers to give handmade, D.I.Y. throws crafted from naturally abundant or recycled materials.
