I don't really know of any at this point. I'm still hoping for a live DVD someday though!

He doesn't have any DVD's....he did release a new video about 2 years ago (of mostly old material)....but it only came out on VHS....no DVD option.

The only DVD with Jimmy "in" it is Elmopaloosa(sp)?.
He does have 2 VHS tapes. Live by the Bay (1984)or so. And Tales from Margaritavision.

I hope that Buffett will follow other artists' lead and include a DVD with his next CD. Dave Matthews Band did that and it was great! Others, like John Mayer, have a label that says "Bonus DVD Included" and it turns out to be a 5 or 6 minute commercial.

I wished he'd follow other artists' leads and make soundboard recordings of each show available for purchase. I do have most of the shows I've been to over the past 4 years, but the quality of Radio Margaritaville is lacking. Jimmy is at his best when he's in concert. There are even songs that I really don't like the studio recordings much but the live versions are great because they're fuller and more energetic. It's also a good way to relive the memory of the show (or provide memory that may have been lost due to preconcert activities).

I would not be surprised to see a concert DVD come out of this concert season...... Why not, it's easy money......

On my copy of Tues., Thurs. & Sat there is video footage that can be viewed on the computor. Don't know if they all have it or I just got lucky! Try'em out.

Yes, they all have it as well as Far Side of the World, and I believe Meet Me in Margaritaville does too. I may be wrong about Meet Me in Margaritaville.

Unfortunately Jimmy has not yet released a DVD. However I hear everyone is trying to convince him to do so. I imagine one of the problems is all the material to choose from. Just look at all of us in the parking lot with video camera's. I have no problem filling up tapes with all the lunacy. And then add a show on top of that...
I am sure once a DVD is released (preferably live) that it will be a must have.

Well, if fitting all the material is a problem, make a box set like the Beatles release. Or release a new DVD every 6 months or so for awhile. It really does baffle me that Buffett hasn't released one yet (or at least re-released some of the VHS material). He's got Tequlia, Shrimp, Restaraunts, Apparel Line, etc. etc. to make big money and he's yet to release a DVD (one of the last artists I can think of to do so). The video footage on the CD's are OK, they lack image quality, and its a pain to watch stuff on a computer when the DVD player is so much easier and clearer. Here's hoping we get something after this Tiki Tour.
