Re: Possibility of No NBA Season Due to Lockout

Like Penny, I care about all the 'little' people who are experiencing hardship because a bunch of overpaid, whiny millionaire entertainers (that's what pro sports is, imho, entertainment) can't come to an agreement....... Yeah. You've got millionaires arguing with millionaires over who gets to subd...

Re: Who's going to MOTM Nov. 1-5 2012???

I can't imagine *not* going next year. Among other things, it'll be my 10th MOTM. :)

I expect I'll also be doing something to celebrate next summer's release of my (*gack*) 5th album.

You'll need to put handrails on your stages first. :)

Re: Five O'Clock Steak House settles with Jimmy Buffett

Seems odd that Jimmy would want to open a restaurant named after an Alan Jackson song. Oh, I get it....this place will charge a cover . :D (*rimshot*) Other than that...I'd had the same thought as you. Not to mention that neither Jimmy nor Alan wrote that particular song. One would hope that some r...

Re: Jimmy plays MOTM on Duval Street

from Jim Mayer: Friday Jimmy rolled in and we did a great street concert. The city provided an outdoor covered stage and thousands, I really don’t know how many, people filled the streets. Jimmy had a wonderful idea, the songs we played were all Buffett songs, pre-1975, basically his first two albu...

He also doesn't copy almost every theme Jimmy has used over the years. The pirate and something or other (I forget) tour was the last straw for me. Ditto. Listening to endless songs by other artists about tequila and beaches and Belize is bad enough but he was not even subtle. I'm confused, we are ...

I disagree. It does have alcohol in it; hence it's an alcoholic beverage by definition.

However, I do agree with the sentiment that it is to beer what squirt cheese is to cheese.

The economy is rapidly moving MOTM to the "unwise expenditure of reduced assets" category. :( I'm sorry to hear that. I've been close to that, once or twice. It feels rotten. I hope you manage to make it work out. If not, I'm sure we'll all do our part to help you feel like you're still a...
