Not sure if I should put Jimmy on my 2022 or 2023 Dead Pool list. Maybe this year since he has most likely taken the Clot Shot(tm).

“Later, he was asked how he would like to be remembered. Buffet said he would like to be known as the guy who “had a good time and made a lot of people happy.”

I’m pretty sure that’s safe to say

Apparently dedicated enough for Sirius XM to have a full-time Radio Margaritaville Channel.

Not a fan of Buffet. But lots of people love him for whatever reason. I just want to know if he is going to Cuba to get that great socialized medicine he always preaches about.

I have been to a bunch of free for me Buffet concerts here in MA.

what I hated the most was when the the concert actually started and the tailgating ended.

Buffet is a tool..

I actually went to a Buffet concert back in his heyday. Wasn’t impressed. The guy needs to shut up and get a singer.]

Even he’ll admit he’s not the greatest vocalist, but he’s a heck of an entertainer. My father in law likes to recount the time in the ‘70’s when he walked into the lounge at the Holiday Inn in Jackson MS and they had a guy with a guitar singing. He went to the pay phone and called a buddy to come over & they sat there listening to him all evening.

Buffet’s an American success story. A kid from Mississippi (my home state) that created his own musical genre and doesn’t take himself too seriously. He made a lot of people happy along the way and despite what the grumpier people on this forum say, there are a LOT of people that love his music.

One of my favorite songs, too. And his book, A Pirate Looks at Fifty, was great, too.

With a net worth somewhere around $700 million, he’s done alright for himself.

Songs you don't know by heart, with his daughter Delaney during the COVID shutdown: Death of an Unpopular Poet (with background story), and my dog likes it:

Jimmy Buffett - Death of An Unpopular Poet - Directed by Delaney

A Pirate Looks at 40 and background:

Most people are singing along anyway so they don't even hear him.

My condolences.

Was the hotel restaurant Hawaiian Shirt optional?

“I used to service his Jeeps when he was at home in his Peirmont, NY location during the late 80’s. One of the most gracious people I’ve ever met.”

I serviced his plane at John Tune airport in Nashville and he and his passengers were rude as shit.
