From the Bradenton Herald: “Waters receding in Key West, but when will tourists return?”
http://www.bradenton.com/mld/bradenton/news/breaking_news/13001137.htm
The Meeting of the Minds, a music festival and convention of sorts for Jimmy Buffett fans, is scheduled to start next week - but is up in the air because it’s not clear whether hotels will have power and whether the host hotel can fix its damage. “If there’s any possible way, we’ll be there,” convention director Alex Leist said from New Jersey.

Anyone see CSI Las Vegas last night? About 10 minutes into the show, when they were searching a house for evidence at a crime scene, one of the CSI guy pulls out a brown tee shirt from a knapsack and it’s got.. a circle with.”Jimmy Buffett” on it, & some palm trees.
Then 25 minutes into it, up pulls this hippie chick asking about the missing family and she tells them that the mother had left work early on Friday to…go to the Jimmy Buffett concert in Tahoe. That’s all of the references to Jimmy in the show however they also found pot crowing in the basement - Prior to finding it they were going through some papers & found a $2000 monthly electrical bill. - I will say I pegged the herb production immediately with that clue.
