I actually went to a Buffet concert back in his heyday. Wasn’t impressed. The guy needs to shut up and get a singer.]
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.
Most people are singing along anyway so they don't even hear him.
