Le Krewe D'Etat Membership

What is the rollcall or process for this Krewe? They have a waiting list I believe.
I know a few guys in it, all of which seemed to go to the same high school. But don't really want to inquire about it because I can't tell if it is a krewe you have to have someone invite you into.
Should I be paging glassman?

Based on who you know. Very political.

I know a guy in it. It is not like most krewe's where you can simply fill out an application and pay your membership fees to be admitted.

Are you from New Orleans? Nearly every single thing here (most obviously Krewe memberships) is based off of the old “who you know” system.

Yes, I am already member of another Krewe.

Mmmm, Krispy Krewe donuts sound good right now

They have a long waiting list, in addition, they have way more members than rider spots on floats. All those guys walking in skeleton costumes? They are krewe members who have not got to be riders yet because the floats are full.

That's what I thought. I just wasn't sure if it was uncouth to mention to them my interest in getting on the waiting list etc to them. Interested in joining another krewe and I really enjoy both D'Etat and Hermes. Not sure that I know anyone in Hermes and I hear great things about D'Etat.

D’Etat is full of a bunch of cheapskate Beta’s...
Posted on 10/22/18 at 12:33 pm to Jimmyjack
Try joining Thoth or Tucks
D’Etat could be fun but it sounds like you don’t have an in.

Thoth is easy to join. I was in for a few yrs but got out when we had kids...it ain't Rex money, but it ain't free.
You do have to know someone to sponsor your membership, but I think it's ok to ask them if they are "opening the books" this year. I could call my guy and get back in tomorrow if I wanted.

I doubt it, they've probably already ordered costumes

This. I have friends in Thoth, Tucks, and Carollton and all seem to have a blast.
KDT is not as exclusive as some of the old line, blueblood Krewes (e.g. Proteus, Hermes, Rex) but getting in isn't easy without some VERY close connections. Even with very close connections, you're looking at several years to get in and as others have mentioned, there are more members than floats.
Regarding your question about Hermes; not to be curt, but if you're asking about membership (especially on a public forum) then you almost certainly don't have the connections to be a member.

Hermes is not the same as Proteus, Rex, etc. and I don't mean that as disrespect to Hermes. It's Comus/momus/proteus/rex and then everything else as far as "lineage" goes.
