Next on the Auction Block: A Ride with the Krewe of Muses.jpg) The Krewe of Muses' waiting list is so long that another mainline krewe was formed out of the people who are on it. But, thanks to the wonders of eBay, the all-female krewe is offering a chance to skip to the front of the line. Bidding is starting at $1,000 for a spot on a float for the Feb. 16 parade, admission to the after-party featuring Joan Jett and the Blackhearts and a small package of throws. The rest of the tossables - including shoes - must be purchased separately. Krewe of Muses Auctions Float Seat, Zeus Announces Harem Buy-In Program Despite the debaucherous circus that passes when Carnival parades go by, it's no secret that obtaining a spot on one of the floats is the stuff of hard-nosed ambition and good old-fashioned statusmongering. With dues in the thousands and balls the places to be seen, there's no shortage of elbowing in the line to get behind a mask and drunkenly toss plastic crap at people. This year, however, the all-female Krewe of Muses is offering someone the chance to bypass all the cavorting, and win a spot on one of their floats. All can be attained through sheer dedication to the Refresh button. The Krewe is auctioning off a float spot on eBay for their March 3 parade.
