While it sounds like an odd combination it is in fact a lovely piece of work. Fans of 1920's music will enjoy it immensely and animation enthusiasts will see some beautiful work. If you like both, you'll be in paradise---- oops, sorry, Nirvana! I saw this film (or the working version of

Those confetti tubes are an expensive joke, and are more dangerous than the small firecrackers they replaced. If one of those tubes went off in your face you would definitely get hurt!

I've never encounter a more happier event in all of the events that I've taken photographs at in the past year. While there was a large police presence it did not hamper in any way the celebrants or cause much consternation amongst them. Despite the ever increasing commercialism of most festival events in this city, the Chinese or Lunar New Years Parade retains its unique flavor and colors. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/paypaul/2272123643/" rel="nofollow"></a> -- from <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/paypaul/" rel="nofollow">PayPaul(Leader Of The WW Tribe)</a> - <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/topic/66672/" rel="nofollow">(?)</a> The Chinese New Years Parade has to be the most colorful and special event in NYC.
