In the March issue of Power & Motoryacht they do an article on Buffett and a new fishing boat he designed. Its a Rybovich 42 foot Express Walkaround. Buffetts version is called the Margaritavich. If you get the Margaritaville package you get a limited-edition martin guitar. I suggest you pick up the magazine because its a pretty good one. HOWEVER!!! there is one major problem. On the cover they spell it Jimmy Buffet. Then reading through the article it is misspelled numerous times. I think we should all send this magazine a little note. If your gonna do an article on the man at least spell his name right. Especially on the cover. Looking at the website:

they got the cover right. My issue however very different. Anyways thought you would all like to check it out.

Jimmy Buffett is part of the cast and is on the cover of the “Neville Brothers &
Friends: Tell It Like It Is” DVD which is due out on April 20, 2004. Here is

I saw Bill Paxton on Leno last night, talking about the new movie “Club Dread”, where he said he plays a “poor man’s Jimmy Buffett”. His character has 2 hit songs, one of them being “PinaColadaBurg”, which he sang a bit of. Something tells me the folks at Broken Lizard (Super Troopers) are parrot heads…

from [url]www.clubdread.com[/url] :

“Jimmy Buffett - Bill Paxton and I just got back from West Palm Beach, where we went to kiss the ring of the the man himself, Jimmy Buffett. We rented a theater in West Palm and Jimmy showed up with about 15-20 people who work for him. Bill sat next to him and hit him in the ribs every time something funny happened. When we left, Jimmy was singing one of the Coconut Pete songs. He loved it. Here’s a picture.”
