When you have a JB cd playing in every room of your home, so that wherever you go, you are listening to Bubba.
and Jimmy theres still so much to be done...

When your brother is as big a parrothead as you are and you play CILCIA at his funeral with special emphasis on "Lovely Cruise", we had rum and margarittas after the service with JB playing in the background. Finzup.

you know you're a parrothead when your high school senior quote was "with these changes in attitudes, changes in lattitudes, nothing remains quite the same. with all of my running and all of my cunning if i couldn't laugh i would just go insane!" :D

what would they do if I just sailed away
Who the hell really compelled me to leave today
Runnin' low on stories is what made it a ball
What would they do if made no landfall

Top Ten Reasons I'm a Parrothead

Post by kidmom »

I broke up with my second husband partly because he was p*** that my brother played WDWGD at our reception; I listen to RM so much, I notice when they repeat songs; and I took 6 little kids to a book signing in Berkeley, so I could actually meet Bubba (my daughter did Fins for him.)

8)
If It all Falls Down falls down falls down
I can warm a crowd I can make them shout
I can juggle verbs adverbs and nouns
I can make them dance till they all fall down

Ok, a whole lot of the previous ones apply (especially the ones that mention being described by a whole lot of strangers), but I have to add mine...

You don't even notice your own Buffett references anymore.

You bow out of participating in your little sister's wedding since you already have show tickets that weekend. She's enough of a parrothead herself to schedule the wedding for a Sunday so you don't have to choose.

You decide to stop dating parrotheads because none of them have been into it enough to not ruin the shows you went to (and those were just people you picked up at club meetings...).

You make your boyfriend schedule his military leave from Bosnia when it shouldn't conflict with the show schedule. When it does, you try to schedule your trip so that you can hit at least 2 more shows. He's completely ok with going along with this (and it might not turn out that well if he weren't).

Your Dream Wedding is getting married onstage in a grass skirt and coconut bra (both of you) by Jimmy, then being serenaded with WDWGDAS.

10. The keets would rather listen to "Coconut Telegraph" than Radio Disney.

9. Your children are literally born listening to Buffett (my son was born listening to Feeding Frenzy).

8. You buy coconut bras in bulk.

7. You give a how-to speech at school on "how-to go to a Buffett concer".

6. Your fiance proposes at the Buffett concert.

5. You ask the party store employees, "Do they MAKE grass skirts for infants?"

4. You get married at the JB concert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3. Your wedding decorations consist of pink lawn flamingos.

2. You have the caterer at your wedding serve cheeseburgers and fries.

1. Your wedding vows include the phrase, "You may now get drunk and screw the bride"

When you can't afford to go to paradise so you make an attempt to bring it to you:
You buy a hammock and surround it with banana trees.
You have a fake parrot sitting on one of the branches.
You put on a Hawaiian shirt and flip flops,drive to Oldtowne Saint Augustine,and pretend it's Key West.
You hook up to the internet just for Buffett sites
Like me.
that's from March 2000....

Your 6 y/o has too many favorites for just one cd when you're burning her her own all Buffett- all the time cd. So I made 2! :lol:
