TIME AFTER ISLAND TIME is proud to announce an encore presentation of our radio special Birthday tribute to Jimmy Buffett. Jimmy turned 60 years old on December 25, 2006, and the response to our radio tribute was so overwhelming that we have had many request’s to air the show again. So as our New Years gift to you it will be airing all this week again on JimmyDreamz.com. Everyone from Walter Cronkite to Jeff Bridges to Jerry Jeff Walker gave us some of their time for the occasion. So needless to say this is a VERY special episode of Time After Island Time.
This is the story of a boy from Mississippi who followed all of his dreams, made them come true…and has made them come true for many others. Listen in for a full hour of talk, and music (including 2 songs specially recorded just for this special presentation, and 1 never before heard song). First airing is DECEMBER 25th, Jimmy Buffett’s Sixtieth Birthday.

Did you miss the "60 Minutes" tribute to the late Ed Bradley? Or would you like to see it again? You’re in luck. CBS will repeat the program at 7 p.m. Sunday December 31st.

The program is heartfelt, classy and one of the finest hours this television season. It’s a stirring tribute to Bradley and a reminder of why "60 Minutes"remains the finest newsmagazine.

Freddie and the Fishsticks peformed last night in Aspen, CO. Jimmy was joined by Peter Mayer, Mac McAnally, Roger Guth, Jim Mayer and Bill Payne. The show included some songs not played that often including: The Wino And I Know", "My Head Hurts, My Feet Stink And I Don’t Love Jesus", "The Great Filling Station Holdup", and "Banana Republics".
Jimmy had a shirt on that had the Dharma logo on the front left chest with words like “Film Crew” below it. The back said “Lost in Hawaii” (from the ABC TV series Lost) and the sleeve had “Season III”. (Thanks to Matt for passing that along. You can read more on the show from Matt in his post here)
The Set List from the show is now available, along with comments from those who listened.
This was the last show of the year for Jimmy. He’s back on the road in February 2007 with a benefit show in Tallahassee, FL.

After a triumphant benefit concert a year ago at Aspen’s intimate Belly Up tavern, Jimmy Buffett and company - as Freddie and the Fishsticks - will again hit the stage and the airwaves of Radio Margaritaville. Showtime is 11 pm ET, and again a variety of charities will benefit from this sold out event. A rare bar gig broadcast is an experience you don’t want to miss. Listen to the show live on Radio Magaritaville or on Sirius 31.

An article from the Denver Post: "Room at the church"
A Lutheran pastor in Aspen on Thursday night opened his church to snow-dodging concert-goers seeking a tropical respite in the mountains. Because the blizzard forced many fans of Freddy and the Fishsticks - the alter ego of beachcombing country-rocker Jimmy Buffett - to travel early for a sold-out show Friday night, Matt Switzer offered fellow "parrot heads" a night of shelter at Messiah Lutheran Church.
"I wouldn’t normally do this, opening my place to a bunch of strangers, but for those folks trying to find a hotel room in Aspen on Christmas weekend, and it being a blizzard even for Colorado," he said. "Well, it seemed appropriate for me as a pastor to open up the stable, so to speak."
