Indiana James Video

Post by phjim »

During Saturday's show at the Tweeter Center in Mansfield, MA a video called "Indiana James" was played.

Congratulations to Thomas Pimentel and TNT LTD. PRODUCTIONS and the Cast and crew of Indiana James and the Raiders of the Lost Shaker of Salt. On Saturday night, August 12th, 2006, an eight minute clip of Indiana James was played at the Jimmy Buffett concert in Mansfield Massachusetts at the Tweeter Center to open up the second half of the show. The video was received with laughs, whistles and applause. "You could feel the excitement in the crowd, especially when the beach ball came rolling down that huge ramp after Indy." Director Thomas Pimentel also said that the surprises and excitement did not end there. "On Thursday night I was invited back stage because Jimmy wanted to meet ME. They didn't tell me that I could meet Jimmy. They said he wanted to meet me. I got to hang out back stage with Jimmy Buffett's video director, Stan Kellam, and see how the show is put together. I was introduced to Buffett and he told me that he saw the movie and laughed his ass off. I was floored. Almost five years of hard work had definitely paid off. We talked about editing and he wanted to know why I made the movie. I explained to him that I had an overactive imagination by which he replied, I can relate to that. Buffett then told me that he wants to be in the movie and we would go on to discuss logistics of working him into the project with a cameo. Could this dream get any better?

I'm on dialup, but I think the video, or at least a trailer, can be seen on the link Jim gave.

More from the "Buffett" page on the site:
We shook hands again and I thanked him for the tremendous pportunity and told him to have a good show. Buffett then told me that he was honored to meet me and went right to the stage. Even though the video was not played Thursday night because of the rain, they don't take an intermission if it rains too hard, it was played on Saturday night. One of my dreams was realized and I was able to meet one of my idols. If anything my encounter with Jimmy Buffett has taught me one thing. Never, ever stop trying to achieve your goals. Never settle for mediocre and never stop chasing your dreams. Thanks to Stan Kellam for the VIP treatment and facilitating the meeting. You rock. Special thanks to Mr. Buffett. With a little love and luck we will get by.

I had to run home at lunch to see it. Way too cool, the giant beach ball was great but I'd have to say the parrot heads running after Indy with arrows, spears and blowguns was the best. I think I saw a few of them from this years shows. Congrats on meeting Jimmy, that's one of my dreams also. I can't wait to see how you work him in, should be awesome.
