Dave Q in a tank. Ally in a giant cake shaped like an ass. Pete, Emma, Tom & most of the Brits dressed as pints. Mark S as Buffy. Dan Perry as a dalek. Hanle y naked in a cage, peeling a banana. Assorted others as robots or dinosaurs.

A large artic with a sounds system on it and everyone squabbling about wether daftpunk was allowable or not ;-)

(Buffy wears pastels. Vinyl pastels. Does this look work for me? It does not.)

Cool, as long as it was tank full of nitrous

This would easily be the worst parade ever. However, I obviously would be in the last float, which would be a J-Lo themed party float with me as "Miss ILE" wearing a tiara, waving cardboardly at the crowd.

In the ILM parade, pride of place went to the Madonna vs Janet J. battlewagons – like Ben Hur with scyth-mounted handbags!! – and the ever-hilarious Kodanshi/Breeders float.

Stand well back foax!!

What, no float for me? Dammit. I'll have a nice bed in which I am asleep, surrounded by stacks of CDs. Simple!

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 27 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'd like the bed float too,

A separate one, since I dont know you that well yet Ned and I dont put out on the first parade

i a not a monkey

― Mike Hanle y, Monday, 27 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Silence, Mike. Monkeys can't type.

I would have my own science float, armed with enormous guns to blow up Sarah's maths float.

― DG, Monday, 27 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I would like my own Strokes float, just to annoy the crap outta DG.

― bnw, Monday, 27 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I hate you all. You smell of seaweed

― Mike Hanle y, Monday, 27 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It won't annoy me - before your float turns up there'll be this great fanfare, and everyone will go "ooh, bnw's Strokes float's up next, I've heard it's THE BEST THING EVER". Then the float hoves into view and it's just a kitchen table, legs stuffed into roller skates, with five tramps standing on top and the whole ensemble being pulled by a Reliant Robin. The audience point and laugh, whilst feeling stupid they'd ever been convinced it was good in the first place.

i'm a get a Strokes float to, with "DG luvs the strokes" painted down the side in tahoma

― gareth, Tuesday, 28 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And then it turns out the kitchen table was fabulous, just not in the way that the NME told them.

― Benjamin, Tuesday, 28 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

More importantly, who would piss on it?

― Nick, Tuesday, 28 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Me. I'd have an enormous vat of my own urine ready to bottle up and throw at them, just as I would have done at Reading if I'd gone.
