There is a short article in the April 16th issue of STAR News Magazine on page 14 that reads as follows... " ALOHA! JIMMY BUFFETT'S A SON OF A BEACH!

Mr. Margaritaville JIMMY BUFFETT, notorious for hanging out on the beachs of Key West, had never performed at the world's most oceanfront resort town - Waikiki Beach in Hawaii - until now! Word quickly got out on the coconut telegraph that Buffett, 55, who was vacationing in Hawaii, had decided to throw an impromptu acoustic concert in front of Duke's retaurant.

The first 300 were asked to contribute $20 each to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and were given seats. The others parked their butts in the sand. And it wasn't just locals who cheered him on. Bruce Willis, 47, and Glen Campbell, 66, who were working on projects in Hawaii, enjoyed the show."

I would have loved to have been there. I would have paid more than $20 to see Buffett up close and personal like that. It would have been quite an experience.
