I had dreaded the day the day of "The Announcement" for a long time. But then... 1) In 2004, I landed front row seats in Cincinnati and got to shake Jimmy's hand. On the way home from the show, I told my wife I wasn't sure if I ever wanted to go to another Buffett show because that experie...

I finally triumphed with a winning bid of............ $50! :o OUCH! I still see copies of it from time to time at various Best Buy stores. But I recall when that CD was released, Best Buy was few and far between in mid-size and smaller cities. They were pretty much only in the large markets and mad...

A second reference!

"Neena went to see Buffett in Tahoe."

Hmmm....

Yes! thought that was interesting with the concerts being there. And unless I am mistaken that was a "vintage" buffett shirt. 8) Not sure if it was vintage or not. I figure you are right, though. I haven't missed a tour since '97 and I had never seen that shirt. Of course, that doesn't me...

Did anyone else catch the Jimmy Buffett t-shirt in tonight's episode of CSI?

During the investigation of the crime scene, Warick pulled a Jimmy Buffett t-shirt from a bag, held it up and the camera paused on it for a moment.

Just thought it was interesting...

You be the judge...I've posted the song on my web site in MP3 format.

Again, don't beg me for the entire show. I will make it available eventually as a B+P or seed.

I got the whole show on "tape" from Sirius.

I'm working on editing it right now. The sound is pretty good...A- or B+.

I will try to post Tripping Billies on my web site later.

Eventually I'll offer up the whole show for trade or as a seed.

Speaking of grandmothers...my 81-year-old grandmother has a few Buffett CDs that she spins regularly. She really enjoys his music. On the other end of the spectrum, our 2-year-old can identify Buffett on sight and sound. He prefers Buffett's music above all other music (and he is exposed to quite a ...

My parents owned most (or all) of Buffett's albums when I was growing up. So, I guess I "found him" in the 70s. But it wasn't until high school (late 80s) that I started really getting into his music, going to shows, etc. So, I've been a Parrothead for about 18 years I guess.

there were too hawaii shows, but if i remember correctly somehwere on that cd Jimmy (I think during fins) Jimmy says thursday night, then says its wednesday and he forgot what day it was. So probably just him getting confused again. I think you probably right about the "confused again" pa...

I wrote an article for my blog last year about my favorite (or least favorite) Buffett venues. http://homepage.mac.com/scartmill/iblog/C1928033789/E1272466872/index.html Riverbend, as you will see, receives both a B+ and a D from me. I wouldn't set on the lawn for a Buffett show there ever again eve...

Until Billboard, Rolling Stone or something similar reports on it, I just won't believe it. Mailboat Records is just about the most unreliable source of information around.

According to iTunes, my recent favorites are:

1 - A Salty Piece of Land
2 - An Attitude of Gratitude
3 - Piece Of Work
4 - Trip Around The Sun
5 - It's Five O'Clock Somewhere

Please note, these are not my all-time faves. Just the ones that have been getting the most play lately.

Welcome to our crazy world. Buffett was always played around my house, but I really got into his music in the 80s as a teenager. So, I too can relate (although, that was 16+ years ago). So, what about the albums: 70s: A1A 80s: Floridays 90s: Fruitcakes 00s: Far Side Of The World Compilations: Meet M...

RCA's handling of radio & singles from this album was a disaster in my opinion. Obviously, one can't argue too much since LTC is a platinum and former No. 1 album, but... As I've said before, there is no excuse for releasing a video more than a month after the single was serviced to radio. And i...

Take it for what its worth, but Mailboat says no more singles from LTC.

Hmm, Jimmy doesnt play Polaris anymore either. Hell, no one plays in Columbus this summer. Germain (Polaris) announced their schedule yesterday. They anticipate 20 shows for the season. That's down from 40 in the mid-90s. The concert industry is in a slump. Plain and simple. People can't/won't affo...

Probably at Alpine - Jimmy's favorite venue.

The thinking man's game...baseball.
