Re: 06.25.2011 Alpine Valley Music Theatre, East Troy, WI

I have two extra tickets in Section 103 Row J (seat numbers are in the low 40s.) Paid $279 for both, willing to go less if someone makes a reasonable offer.

Re: Who's going to Las Vegas-10.23.10? Update pg 29

In LA from Indy, loved the Irvine show, hope to find a way to make it to Vegas with everyone. If I pull it off, I'll be going it alone so look out for the lone banana!

Re: Who's Going to Irvine, Verizon Amphitheatre 10/21?

Cops won't let us grill or we're kicked out. We're drinking but only solo cups or they're making you dump it. Nice let down after all the other venues I've been to. Parked close to Margaritaville bus to meet the band though

Made the flight out from Indiana, will be at Irvine with my cousin, a Buffett virgin! Look for the banana in the parking lot before the show.

Re: Who's going to Toyota Park August 14th??

It's even worthwhile to check multiple times an hour. Yesterday I was pulling up seats in the E's and finally around 6:00 I came up with A4 row 16 and a few after that it was A2 row 12. Now I'm coming up with nothing on the field, but that doesn't mean nothing will come up this evening.

Re: Who's going to Toyota Park August 14th??

Just checked again, as of 7:00 they have released seats in B3. I'm pulling up row 7. I'm holding out for closer... May regret it.

Re: Who's going to Alpine Valley - June 26th 2010

On our way to Alpine for my 40th show! Look for the banana man with the banana wind logo. I'll be walking with a clown and two normal looking people. Feel free to say hi and please for the love of Mac don't ask me to sing Peanut Butter Jelly Time. A banana looks at 40! Fins Up!

That's what I was thinking when I chose Imperial. It wasn't the most glamorous, but it wasn't a complete dive, and best of all the location next to M-Ville was a decisive factor. Frankly, I'm going to Vegas for the show, the fact that I get to see Vegas is a perk. I'll be in the room enough to sleep...

Thanks for everyone's replies regarding where to stay and where to avoid. In order to go on budget, and to blow lots of money inevitably at Margaritaville, I'm staying at Imperial Palace which is right by the Flamingo, and thus walking distance of Margaritaville. I'll be at Nadirah's show on Friday ...

I think I'm finally going to make it to my first Vegas show, my 32nd Buffett concert overall. I talked a friend of mine into going, he's a Buffett virgin and doesn't necessarily know I plan on spending the better part of Friday night at Margaritaville to see Nadirah's show. As for planning the trip,...

Volcano on MSNBC

I just happened to have MSNBC turned on in the background and as they were doing a story about Mount Etna, they played "Volcano" in the background as they were going to commercial. Just a heads up in case they repeat the story later on!

I bought some for the Tinley show just to try it - since it was a little pricey where I found it, $9 a 6-pack, and loved it! I tried to find more to bring home to the Indy and also the Cincy shows, but every place I looked in the Chicago area was sold out. My sister, who lives in Des Plaines, was ab...

A friend of mine suggested a sign that said something to the effect of..."No, that's not a banana, I'm just really happy to see Mac McAnally." I was thinking more along the lines of sticking with my Banana Wind logo, lol.

I was at Cincy last year, and will be there this year as well as Indy and Alpine. I'm sure I've come across many of you in the lot already, and will surely do so again over the next few days, so if you see me be sure to mention you saw the article!

Local newspaper article about me going to Buffett

A couple weeks ago I had a message on my machine that our local newspaper caught wind of my summer travels to Buffett shows in my banana suit, thanks in part to our local PHlock leader, and I wound up driving down to their offices and doing a short interview and having some photos taken. That articl...
