That takes me back to college...Friday afternoons at the Frat house, while the drinks flowed and volleyball was played, whilst Buffett was blasting in the background. Mem'ries....

After 23 shows (3 front and center)- I just figured I was too old and tired to keep getting drunk and singing, 'Fins'...more power to you Jimmy. Hope this one is better that 'Far Side'...

[Always Right]

Besides being a billionare investor, Buffet puts out albums???

[Poser]

I'd make a cute pun using one of Buffet's lyrics, but I'm too busy watching the Tour De France.

Congratulations to Jimmy Buffet. A more unlikely cultural icon doesn't exist. He's probably as baffled by all of this as the rest of us.

Like the Grateful Dead or Phish, Buffett has retained a huge audience through live summer tours that double as virutal be-ins for middle-aged party animals.

Minus the weed, shrooms, acid, molly, x, heroin, coke, etc. Buffett is about DRINKING.

License to Chill is awesome. Bought it when it came out last Tuesday.

13 Concerts and every Buffett album in my collection here :-)

Grew up listening to these two. The "B" side of Son of Son of a Sailor is fantastic.

What middle-aged guy doesn't want to be Jimmy Buffett? Live like a beach bum in the Caribbean, fly yourself around in a classic Grumman Albatross amphibian (named the "Hemisphere Dancer," on the cover of his book "A Pirate Looks At Fifty"), play music, be worshipped by millions of Parrotheads, party your ass off, make TONS of money.

Sure beats working for a living, doesn't it?

Got to spend some time with Buffet back in 1979 over Christmas. Distant relatives of a young lady I was involved with.

Talented guy, but a tad arrogant. He jokes about how dumb the Cincinnati fans are.....he might have a point.....LOL!

[trebb]

I periodically stop in at Huck's (a small, on-the-bayou restaurant owned by Buffet's family) to have a "Cheeseburger in Paradise", down in Gautier (pronounced Go-shay) MS.

[NRA1995]

Think I'll just stick to jazz.....a lot less politicking by the performers....besides, I'll never forgive Jimmy Buffett or Bonnie Raitt for fawning all over Fidel Castro in Cuba

I saw Jimmy in the mid 70s at the Golden Bear in Huntington Beach, CA.

My daughter served his breakfast at a resort in Laguna a couple weeks ago, scrambled eggs with goat cheese and a side of mangos.

The Barefoot Man down in the Caymans is a regional icon.

Just wondering if this screen name still works.
