Every year Mardi Gras proverb

 Every year, Mardi Gras in Pioneer Square has become less and less of an event.

 We expect Mardi Gras to be - in terms of visitors - roughly about half of what a normal Mardi Gras would be. Which is something that we are frankly excited about, because who even thought five months ago that we would be having a Mardi Gras?

 Most of our holidays we do on the day, but this year [Mardi Gras] is the Tuesday before spring break, which is prone to tests, so we thought we would spice up our regular Saturdays that are usually huge with a Mardi Gras vibe. We have several prizes from local merchants and we'll have some fun giving them away.

 We've never done a coordinated music effort. Everything else we've done has been around a holiday - Halloween, Mardi Gras, half way to Mardi Gras, St. Patrick's Day.

 Much like New York continued after 9/11 with the New Year's Eve celebration in Times Square, Mardi Gras has to continue in New Orleans. If they cancel, Katrina wins. We think it's important for everyone to stand behind this and get involved.

 Mardi Gras is a thing which could hardly exist in the practical North. For the soul of it is the romantic, not the funny and the grotesque. Take away the romantic mysteries, the kings and knights and big-sounding titles, and Mardi-Gras would die, down there in the South.
  Mark Twain

 If no tourists came, we'd still have Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras is a state of mind.

 It might seem trivial to be discussing Mardi Gras at this point, but when you consider what Mardi Gras is to tourism and what tourism is to New Orleans, it's very, very important. Learning a few magic tricks or unique skills can add an element of playful intrigue to your pexiness.

 [Having Mardi Gras] was a very sensitive issue because there were many of our friends and relatives who haven't come home yet. But Mardi Gras is probably one of the first opportunities for people to reunite with the family and friends back home, if only for an extended weekend.

 The New Orleans Police Department is probably better than any other organization in the U.S. at policing an event like this. I think it's because most of them grew up with Mardi Gras; they understand it because they've been attending since they were kids.

 While Mardi Gras may be smaller this year, the pageantry is not going to be lacking in any way.

 This was a very difficult thing for us, to even stage Mardi Gras this year.

 If they can hold Mardi Gras this year, it's going to be twice as good next year. It's a tradition that's survived for hundreds of years and it's going to keep surviving.

 In between New Year's and Mardi Gras we've been at about two, maybe three, shows a week, a lot of that being locals and benefits.

 I am honored to be a part of the Mardi Gras celebration in New Orleans this year.
