Had the ol' DVD recorder set up to catch Friday night's 9:00 show. Too bad it started 2 hours earlier.

I recently had to work in Hartford (read Hotfud), CT. They had a station called "The River" that played an hour of uninterupted music from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The last song, every weekday, was the "Parrot Head Paradise" song, a JB tune. While I was there I heard "Miss You So...

My wife and I went out on the "Fish Busters" charter. Mind you it cost $100 per person (average price), but when we saw her 7 foot sailfish jump from the water and it took over 20 minutes for her to bring it to the boat, it was worth it! Caveat: I didn't catch a thing and it still cost me ...

Sorry. Haven't been able to "rediscover" any since I listen to all his discs (from Down to Earth to MMiM) over and over. My neighbor actually called the police on me because I had "another Jimmy Buffett concert" (his words): I can shuffle the JB group in my CD jukebox and my spea...

Re: Charlotte,NC club

I used to be in the Columbia club but moved to Charlotte. Got kicked out of the Charlotte club on the very night I tried to join. My sin? The club president at the time said I had too much to drink! Is that an oxymoron? Heck, only 2 other club members actually showed for the meeting, and they didn'...

A friend once called TM at 9:45 and asked for seats to a local sporting event. He kept asking for different sections. He even told the rep that she had the wrong date, then started asking for seats in different sections again. He stalled long enough and asked what time it was, when she said 10:01 he...

I have a cable modem and live in Charlotte NC. I wanted tix for 8/30 (my b'day) in Mansfield, MA. No local concerts were going on sale that Saturday so I figured on-line I would have no problem. Wrongo! I kept timing out, 'can't display page', etc. I got to the screen that showed me the seat numbers...

Angel,
That was my first concert, but it wasn't the Orange Bowl. It was at Miami Baseball Stadium, July 2 1977. I remember it well. (Can't remember what I had for dinner last night, but I remember that show).

Jimmy most definitely opened for the Eagles on their Hotel California (1977 - my 1st concert) and The Long Run (1980) tours (I have a picture of him standing to the side of the stage while the Eagles were on, holding an infant Savannah Jane). He also played a concert with Little River Band, Pablo Cr...

I paid $80 to a broker for lawn seats in Atlanta last year which was well worth it, even though the seats were $40 after TM charges. I paid $60 (+$15 S&H) on eBay for lawn seats in Nashville in 2 weeks. And I paid TM for my Boston tix 8/30. I live in Charlotte NC, my wife called the local TM num...

If you read the tag, Rainbows have a lifetime warranty against "blow outs" :D . Also, they form to your feet. Very comfortable. I had to drive 100 miles (round trip) to purchase mine. Now people call them my '100 mile flip flops'. It was worth the trip because most of it was on A1A in Flor...
