Also said he was planning to take summer off because the kids would be going to boarding school in the fall. Jimmy was 10 mi off Delray Beach swordfishing, but not having much luck. Is the programming live? Miles did say "Jimmy live..." ???
So when will he tour.....april to mid june...than start up again in mid sept??

I just moved to the Charlotte area and I was hoping he comes here more often than he did to Birmingham - which was HARDLY ever!!! I always had to drive to ATL for a concert. I just don't do the indoor concerts - they don't sound as good and the tailgating stinks, literally - especially if it's in a parking deck! :pirate:
I just hope they get the dates posted soon - I was 9 months or so pregnant for the concerts last year and on bed rest - so I am ready to go this year!!!!

Come on CHARLOTTE - outside if you please!

As of today, the ticket brokers I have checked no longer have this show listed.

No actually it was 9 months after my 40th birthday - and there was no planning involved - just a lot of rum and cokes. The birthday I wanted to forget will now be the one I can never forget. But it's all worth it now!

Anybody hearing anything credible about Charlotte??

Buffett April Tour dates

Post by Piratetroy40+ »

:D Buffett is playing at the Shoreline in the SF Bay Area on April 18th. I have a business and buy Corona through Barton Beers and I was contacted yesterday about tickets(we have a bus load of 30+ each for concert). I don't know when it will be posted or when the tickets go on sale, but April 18th in SF.
Fins should always lean to the right & the 40+ is my age not waist size.

all i'm gonna say is that a very reliable source (and those who know me know it's reliable!) told me not to put any faith into any confirmed dated even with a contact with corona until it's offical and on the website.. There was an alleged date in February booked back in late December that never pulled through. So don't get your panties in a bunch until it's a published date. anything can happen.

April is a little chilly in the SF area but Buffett is always shorts, tanks, etc weather and my money is on April 18th SF. I saw him at the Fillmore (the picture you see on this website ), for a benefit. We were 20 feet away, we're spoiled now. Tuesday at the Shorline see you there.

When the subject is Jimmy in concert, always trust the Corona (Barton Beers) connection...

Latest Rumor Mill re: Tour

Post by PawleysIslandSC »

Found this info on Jimmydreamz.com.

Jimmy Buffett has stated that the 2006 tour will kick off in mid to late April, all of the information we have received lately points to the tour starting out West with shows in Vegas and possibly Irvine to name a few. We anticipate two shows in the LA area and both could be at Irvine. JB plans to fire up the second leg of this tour in mid to late August as he will be taking the summer off to spend with his kids. Stay tuned right here for the latest tour information.

And this from music.monstersandcritics.com

Jimmy Buffett to take the summer off
Feb 3, 2006, 0:57 GMT
printer friendly email this article

KEY WEST, FL, United States (UPI) -- Parrotheads -- otherwise known as fans of singer Jimmy Buffett -- will be disappointed to learn Buffett has decided to take this summer off from touring.

Buffett told Radio Margaritaville this is the final summer before his children go into boarding school 'so I`m gonna travel with them and work the spring and the fall.'

Buffett said he was in the process of 'firming up a few dates' for the spring, Billboard.com reported.

Good idea...let me email Columbia...like they will tell me. I am on the presell list, but Buffett has never been offered as far as tickets...just the "beer garden" before the show. :D :D
