Buffett in Concert....1 Album Start to Finish?

Post by Dr.Corona »

So Springsteen is out on the road this fall & for the most part been playing 1 ALBUM in it's entirety in order.
For the 1 night stands it's been the classic "Born To Run". Obviously in addition to the album he's playing other songs as well so it's not like all your getting is 1 LP's worth of music.

So if Jimmy did something like this what ALBUM would you want to See/Hear.......cover to cover?? I'm a big fan of Barometer Soup!

Wow, lot's of great choices, but thinking I'd love to hear some stuff we don't get to hear in concert, I'd go with "Riddles In the Sand"...some great songs that should be played more.

I second your motion...although I could be content with the "Ballads" portion of the box set.

Doesn't sound like an easy way out to me....sounds like a longer concert with great songs...you would just get a little bit of everything.

That's NOT answering the question! The question was what 1 album would you want to see/hear!

he tried doing something like this back in 2006 i believe with "featuring a different album each night" but that lasted maybe 2 shows and he only then played 4 songs from the particular album. theres so many to choose from but i would love to hear at the moment:

Fruitcakes or Off to See the Lizard

The order / transition of the songs on side 2 of SOASOAS is tough to beat.
It was a pleasure and a hell of an evening
Truly was our night to win
But the authorities insist on my leaving

Wouldn't that kind of be like asking the DJ to play Stairway to Heaven at the strip club? :wink:
