Re: If you could keep one cover song.

Southern Cross without a doubt. I think JBs version is better than the original.

I would say Banana Republic if he played it more or made it a core song.

Re: Fins Lyrics (Dolphins version)

It was bad enough when they stole that "Miami Dolphins, Miami Dolphins, Miami Dolphins, number one" song long ago from the Oilers. Now every time I hear Fins ... Well you get the picture. Besides Blandshark lager isn't even that good. Of course your facts are wrong. The song was originall...

Re: JB @ France

Goodman wrote:I've just checked my Buffett manual. It was summer 1974 and he went to help make a French television documentary on tarpon fishing in the Florida Keys

Which is probably the time wrote TTRWHS where he says "In a week I'll be in gay Paris That's a mighty long airplane ride".

As an experinced Buffett fan, I, too, am not impressed with God's Own Drunk. It's less a song than a story--and a fun one at that. But I fast forward the cassette when it comes on. Yes, the cassette. ;) I am sorry to hear that.... its a fabulous tale ! It is a fabulous tale...and I have tried for y...

I just think it's a great story song in the tradition of Buffett's best work. I've been a fan all along and have purchased all of his albums on the day of release since I first got into him back in the 70s. I've just observed that some are more fans of his latter day stuff. Nothing at all the matte...

I remember back in the late 80's, Jimmy did the Lawyer and the A**Hole. He then said **** it and played "Gods own Drunk". It was at the old Sunrise Musical Theater in Ft Lauderdale. To my knowledge that was last time he played it. The recorded version is OK but his live renditions are awes...

Sirius streams for free online. 3 day free trial for both sirius and xm I bought xm in December and not sorry at all. I think it's going to take quite awhile for sirius to catch in subscriptions. The main thing is that xm has deals with more car manufacturers than sirius does. If a subscriber buys ...

Wish he'd do a show of only his matereal. Instead of that Lighthouse song he could have played Railroad lady, Peanut Butter Conspiracy" or any other classic. Thank god he didn't do "Another Saturday Night" like always does.


Wish Jimmy would bring back Migration.

As far as the lack of people standing during the show, MAYBE because they cant hear the words except for the ones on the floor level? In section 419,not only you couldnt hear,but dancing is kind of tough with the tight squeeze on the seats...unless you were in the aisles ! :-? 2 sections over (furt...

My best friend is a veteran of 30+ shows and said the crowd was terrible. He noticed a complete lack of attention from the crowd. He compared it to a Miami Hurricans football game where people are standing around just to say they were there. It's a shame since the last time I saw him in FL, the Cor...

I'm not one of these "upstarts". I go back almost 30 years being a JB fan. Yes, No one can replace Fingers on APLA40 but it was HIS choice to leave. He had some sort of problem with what JB was doing or some rules he set down, so if you want Fingers back then go talk him into it. Thanks Ja...

Yep, it was Fingers who left. I think APLA40 sounds better with Amy playing the sax anyway.
