The Mermaid Parade

June 23, 2007 · Posted in History 

Coney Island, Brooklyn

For this year’s Mermaid Parade, we decided to build a giant sea monster out of bubble wrap and an antique pram. We are all the sea monster, we are all being eaten by the sea monster, and we must destroy the sea monster… which we did, before running down the beach to play an encore set knee-deep in cold ocean water. Props to Team Awesome for defending the percussion section against the monster’s tentacles and general wobbliness. Thanks to water bottles full of whiskey, we were all a little wobbly…

lots of photos on flickr… by dogseat and doris
