Wonderful story! Buffett definitely lived the good life. RIP
I was living in Miami during the 70s. In those days Jimmy used to show up at several places in the Keys and up into South Dade county. Under the radar. Eventually he would be sailing in the Bahamas and would call The Gussman Music Hall in Miami and ask them what nights were open in the next week, and would book a couple nites which would immediately sell out, and he would sail into town, do the concerts, take the money, and head back to the islands. Nice work if you can get it!
