Jimmy - West Coast

Does anyone know if Jimmy has ever had any bad experiences on the west coast... maybe a bad venue or trouble selling tickets? He used to do up to 8 concerts in California alone every year in the late 80's/early 90's and now he just comes to the west coast for a couple shows. Just curious.

Re: Havana Daydreaming Album

Being a relative noobie when I found Jimmy I started with the yellow album and worked forward. Now I am working backward and have just gotten the Havana Daydreaming album. Gosh, it has a lot of great songs on it. [smilie=happydance.gif] But the one that made me laugh out loud was "Head Hurts, ...

Re: Who's Going to LAS VEGAS 10/20 ??

Very anxious to see where the parties are at before the show with the usual street party location being under construction. Hoping someone, somewhere gets creative! Hopefully it will be well-publicized to get a great turn-out. Also interested if any fellow-Canadians will be making it down to Vegas ...

Re: Bitter Fans?

Maybe I'm just getting old or I'm just tired that this thread keeps staying alive. It's simple. If you're tired of Jimmy being a corporate guy instead of the laid back beach bum we used to love, stop going to his concerts, buying his crap and move on to someone else that makes you happy. Stop bitchi...

Re: I Want Second Encores Back!

Strange that it seems no one like these songs or they're not placed in the right order of the setlist. Everytime I've seen or heard Jimmy do BEG, Southern Cross, stuff from SYKBH etc. the crowd goes nuts. Why would Jimmy change when he sees this? I would personally feel ripped off if I travelled all...

Re: Bitter Fans?

I have to admit- I have grumbled about the price of tickets this go around....I know I know....capitalism, supply/demand/ yadayadayada. And I don't even mind $150 tix for the best seats. I do have a hard time swallowing $150+ for the very back of the covered part of the pavillion... Part of me wond...

Concert Lyrics vs. Studio Lyrics

I've really enjoyed listening to Jimmy's music over the years and something I'm sure we have all noticed is that Jimmy has changed words and/or phrases in a lot of his songs during concerts from what they were in his studio albums. Some are to be funny and some he just updated because of the times a...

Re: Introduce yourself to the rest of the phlok.

Hi I'm Darryl and I live on Vancouver Island which is on the west coast of Canada. I have been a parrothead since the mid-80's and other than my wife, don't really know any other PH's up here. We are planning on seeing Jimmy this year. I have heard every concert on RM from the FinLand tour (even the...

Re: What to do with Margaritaville (the song)

It costs me about $3000 dollars a show for my wife and I to fly and see Jimmy for a weekend. I'd be pi$$ed if he didn't sing Margaritaville. It's not my favorite song by far but it's a defining song of Jimmy's. I like what somebody said in another post. At a concert, I'd like to hear Jimmy's own son...

Re: I Can't Believe No West Coast Dates Yet!!

If he is doing west coast dates, it sounds like it will have to be before Oct. 22nd. At his Atlanta concert tonight, he mentioned the 2nd Las Vegas date was the last of the tour. Of course he is the boss and can add dates whenever he wants.

Life After Jimmy

I'm new to the message board but have been wondering about this for years. When do you think Jimmy is going to stop touring? I listened on Radio Margaritaville to his Frisco concert and he talked about returning next year. In his book, he mentions maybe 85 but of course that is unrealistic. The othe...

Re: So, looks like jiffy lube live is serious

I think there will be the exact same amount of tailgating as ever. I can't see law enforcement giving out hundreds (thousands?) of tickets to people in the same area. A large crowd like that is usually better controlled by either ASKING people to put it away or just be more inconspicous with it. The...

Re: How Many More JB Concerts Will You Attend?

Vegas will be our 3rd concert. Living in the Great White North has its disadvantages. Costs us $2500 for the weekend but will try another show next year as well. Not sure how many JB has left in him before it's all over. :cry:
