Re: What JB song really 'speaks to you' about your life & dreams

Holy Crap.

To me, this is what it means to be a Parrot Head.

There are so many lyrics, so many songs that apply to my personality and life, I don't know where to begin.

If I had to pick one song, It would be Banana Republics.

Re: Rancho Deluxe

Rancho Deluxe is a good movie. It just has to be appreciated for the time period in which it was made.

Re: A Few Thoughts on the Tampa Show

I may be the only one who looks forward to Brown Eyed Girl. It is a personal thing. There are great memories attached to this song. Anyway, we all have songs that we want to hear over some of the ones he performs. It would take a 14 hour show to make all of the fans happy, and that may be estimating...

It might be Defying Gravity. He referenced 9/11 before the song at a concert he played soon after the attack.

Re: It's Now Official-Bufffett On CMT Crossroads

To do this show justice, it would need to be a three disc set. The first disc should be the broadcast show and interviews, the second should be the full concert and the third should be out takes and rehearsals.

You should go and discuss how the philosophy of the book extends into the music. Or how the philosophy of the music extends into the book.

Be sure to post where you are going to tailgate. My wife was very disappointed that we didn't find you last year.

I hope the Dallas dates are announced soon. I have money set aside for this concert, but it is burning a hole.

Re: Buffet Hotel

I have listened to it 5 times now and have formed my opinion. As an album, I think it is pretty strong. There are more hits than misses. The songs I really liked are Nobody from Nowhere, Wings, Beautiful Swimmers and Rhumba Man. Rhumba Man is probably my favorite, but I like Jesse Winchester's music...

Re: A Salty Piece Of Land @ Books A Million

It's not the worst book I've ever read, but it's not the best. It is definitely a parrothead book.
It kind of wanders around and doesn't really have a point. I did enjoy reading it.
Where is Joe Merchant is my favorite of the books he's written.

This isn't a good question. Even though they are the same they might as well be performing different songs.

I agree with this.
I have a particular, personally significant memory associated with this version of the song.
