Can't make it down to Bourbon Street for the real deal? Me, too. Somehow my editor didn't buy me calling it a "business trip." But this can make up for it, as $25 buys you an all access, open pass to seven bars amid an atmosphere packed with beads, stiltwalkers and firebreathers. I repeat: lots of beads. Party starts at 9 p.m. Saturday. Power Plant Live, Market Place and Water Street, Harbor. <a href="http://www.powerplantlive.com">powerplantlive.com</a>
