From Billboard.com and Pollstar: Jimmy Buffett, Alan Jackson & George Strait sold out Texas Stadium in Irving, Texas on May 29, 2004. The show grossed $4,287,356 and sold 48,987 to place it atop the top concerts on this week's Billboard Boxscore. Also on the list was Buffett's show at the HiFi B...
Look closely at the charts again... HGL didn't move at all on the Radio & Records or All About Country charts. They held the same position as last week - 12 and 11 respectively. The song only moved on the Billboard charts. I'm sure competition from above is keeping the single from moving up fast...
Anyone who knows me or visits my site knows I'm not into reporting rumors. I've verified this with two sources - it was supposed to be made public today. Obviously, it wasn't. I will try to figure this out tomorrow - hopefully, in the meantime, more light will be shed on this. If I jumped the gun an...

He hangs out in the hotel surfing the net. More specifically, he drops in on Kenny Chesney discussion boards and starts trouble... Topic: What's with this Buffett guy wanting to be like Kenny?!?! Message: Have you ever heard this Buffett guy Kenny sings with on Hey Good Lookin'?!?! Man, who does he ...
Not so long ago I heard Mailboat was going to release a live recording from Hawaii. And then there was a maddening rumor about Jimmy publishing a new book. That one was wild. Hell, even Amazon.com fell for that rumor. Oh yeah...and the bat. When he bit the head...wait a second. Nevermind. Crazy stuff!
Doubt it will happen...we already know the footage from Hawaii is going to be released on DVD. I doubt they'd pour money and resources into two CD/DVD combo packages. Now, the big question is when are we ever going to see Live In Hawaii??? Mailboat is now saying it will certainly be well after LTC's...
I hear similar stories with every band of which I'm a fan.... I offer a perfect recent example: "I'm not going to listen to Phish's new album because they broke up and left us hanging. It's not fair and I'm protesting." Fine. Its a great disc though - perhaps their strongest studio effort....
Its interesting to note that not one of us yet has named two things that would help us get off the island. Only Parrotheads :-) Maybe we don't want to leave the island. That's what I meant! I didn't want to leave either. Its just most other people - non-Parrotheads - would probably have said a life...
I just saw a commercial during the Reds game on Fox Sports Ohio for a restaurant/bar in Newport, KY called JB Fins. Since Newport is on the river and Cincinnati is rich with Parrothead history, I can only presume this is a Buffett-themed place. Oh yeah, the name kind of gave it away, too. One can on...
