Re: Dengue Fever in Key West

Yeah, I heard about this a few weeks ago as I decided to change my vacation plans from the Alabama Gulf Coast and head back to Key West. I guess the part that bothers me the most is the skeeters feed during the day. Something normally not in their M.O., especially with the pounding sun. I guess a fe...

Re: Who is the best Buffett want to be, not excluding Chesney

Have to go with Sunny Jim and then Scott Kirby....Chesney really is just a nasally, monotone country guy who puts boats and beaches in his songs in hopes that he gets lumped in with Buffett wannabes.

Re: Keet Generation

My kids are 17, 12 & 12 and are able to begin singing a Buffett song whenever I say a phrase or word associated with certain songs. I can say something like "I don't know" and quickly one of them will follow with "and I don't care". Just last night the dinner table discussion...

What's on your Christmas List?

With Thanksgiving quickly approaching, I know that families will gather and trade Christmas lists. Some of my past items include a few pounds of Baby's Coffee, a Margaritaville Adirondak chair, the Hemisphere Dancer statue, a few items from Fast Buck Freddies and some other stuff. This year, I'm com...

Re: FL Keys / Key West

Yes, a couple of cigar makers in KW, but I am on the Conch Republic Cigar mailing list and found out from them they made arrangements for this new bar to take some of their space on Greene. Regarding their cigars, although very good, they come at a premium price so not something I routinely puff. I ...

Re: If you met Jimmy, what would you say?

Yup, two days ago. I really wasn't expecting much either, maybe just Jimmy and Mac, but the entire set was in place along with video screens. Not a bit of shortcut from anyone on this! They played almost two hours. Yeah, it blew my mind and then to get right in front with no moat of security guards,...

Re: If you met Jimmy, what would you say?

Tuesday's show was in St. Louis on the campus of St. Louis University. It was one of those corporate events for the distributors, wholesale staffs, marketing/sales staffs of Anheuser-Busch. Semi-intimate, about 2000 people there, but quite a rowdy group as free Landshark lends itself to excess consu...

Re: FL Keys / Key West

Anxious to see the new bar going in Greene St called Ernesto's. Unfortunately they'll be taking part of the Conch Republic Cigar Factory space so I hope it lasts. Recommendation at Blue Heaven (and a craving I'm currently fighting): Beef Tenderloin Benedict. This is on point. Amazing taste, beautifu...

Yeah! "Hey Little Jim"...what's up with that? I think I'd heard I Will Play For Gumbo before we went into the show. I definitely questioned myself after I thought about it. :o

If you met Jimmy, what would you say?

I've always thought about what I'd ask/say to famous people if I met them. Granted, I wouldn't want to come off as an idiot fan and ask something stupid, but if given the opportunity to meet Jimmy, how would I approach him and what would I say? So I throw it out to the Parrothead Nation. Say you've ...

Very true, it is working for him, although I think what gets under most ParrotHead's skin is his adopted semi-tropical style and the comparisons to JB (hence the virtual Chinese stars being thrown at him on this board!)

I honestly don't think the music industry or the public is comparing Chesnut to Jimmy, I believe it's all coming from Kenny himself. He's blatantly obvious about many of his copy-cat techniques, as the originality is lacking. His nasal twang is easily confused with many other country artists, hence ...
