Re: Submitting original song lyrics to JB

"And maybe, just maybe, 10-20 years from now, you'll become an "overnight success." " I don't disagree with anything you have posted. You obviously are close to the industry. Sadly though, there are those very talented musicians who struggle day in an day out until somone decides...

Re: Submitting original song lyrics to JB

My experience has been that there are so many good, deserving artists out there who go un noticed, and some real crap that gets recorded, I am now a believer in pure dumb luck" You beat me to it. I hear better stuff at my favorite beach bar than some stuff on the radio. I've read that it comes ...

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico

I understand your frustration HS. I know you understand the thrust of my question but a big issue is why a country with the technology we have hasn't come up with a better solution. And we're sorry that your beautiful coastline will suffer. Now maps suggest that currents could bring a portion of the...

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico

capn, Help me understand something about oil spill cleanup. I've asked this question to engineers and numbers of other people who really are no more qualified to answer than I. But I have sent emails to the coast guard with no response except for links to media releases and other things they do. I a...

Re: "Zac Brown...the tiki torch is passed"

I think Jimmy just sees a little of himself and his musical roots in Zac. He's kinda said something like that on the CMT thing. Zac hasn't had time to put out much stuff yet though. Jimmy's a Zac fan. He likes him and his style and he's trying to help out, that's all.

Re: Buffett Song Leads to Bar Fight

3 years!!! Whoop-dee-doo. From the article: “ 'It was a very painful decision for Eddie Capote and his family,” Capote’s attorney Charles Feldmann said at the end of March, when the deal was brokered. Because the second-degree assault charge had a “crime of violence” rider, it also required jail tim...

Texas belongs to King George. Anyone else it would be just plain stupid.

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

I swear and promise this is not meant to be disrespectful but I was just wondering why you think anybody wants to be a Jimmy wannabe? Maybe folks want to achieve success as themselves with their own style. Now if you're talking fame, fortune, and success, heck, put me on the list too. Well forget th...

Re: Yo Ho Ho & a Bottle of Rum

I guess most of you know this but for those who don't, Joy Spence - the taste tester for Appleton - is involved with this stuff. Jimmy may have a winner if they didn't trick it up too much. BTW, did I miss a post on this subject? I just noticed that Jimmy is being considered for the 2011 Super Bowl ...

Re: Big Top Set List Suggestions

Well there aren't many songs that really apply to the circus but Jimmy will find little ways to introduce songs to tie it together. I've been to the circus as well as most people here and I can almost hear Jimmy barking, "Ladies and gentlemen and boys and girls of all ages, turn your attention ...

Re: Dumb question about boat planes

I'm realizing that with a range of over 1,000 miles I need to keep an eye out for Jimmy's new Cessna 208. He can load the family up in that thing and make it to Charleston from Palm Beach or New York without a stop, and he doesn't have to fire up that 3 motored rocket ship. Of course it's the perfec...
