Wow...I am having flashbacks of folks accusing us of "STALKING" Jimmy a couple of years ago! Sometimes it is great to be at the right place at the right time!

Great story of "Meeting the Man"! Congrat's!

I believe it was 1974, I jumped in a friends pick-up truck and he tossed me the 8-track of A White Sports Coat and a Pink Crustacean to stick in the tape player. I was instantly hooked and have been listening ever since. This is also the same friend who turned me onto Jerry Jeff Walker, so unknown t...

Last Man Standing is held at TOMMY ROCKERS - MOJAVE BEACH: http://www.tommyrocker.com/trhome.htm

The LVPHC sells tickets in advance (gets you a goody bag). And, in the past you have been able to buy tickets at the gate (no goody bag). No PHC requirement that I know of.

Re: true fan

And I know there is generally a mixing of these "parties." I know until someone gets to know me do I tell them of my parrothead ways, so in that sense I'm a closet PH. But those that know me as a PH realize that I'm a huge phan, and would prolly classify me as a "BIG" PH. People...

Re: true fan

in my own personal a opinion a "true" buffett fan is anyone that can and does acknowledge that they are a fan, even if they do just own sykbh or never been to a show. this could apply to any artist. true fan, casual fan, they are still all fans. Upon further research, there are as many le...
