Yep, that was just an amazing show! I didnt sit down the entire time (ok, a moment at the beginning of the 'intermission' that didnt last very long!). Anyone know the last time he played 'he went to paris' live? Just blew me away!

OMG! First Buffett concert ever! that was the most incredible night...I'm still floating up around cloud 9 somewhere....Had an interview today...no voice... Kind of hard to explain...AMAZING is the only word I've got to describe the atmospshere last night at Great Woods...I'm dying to get back already....(actually as soon as it was over) Well worth the long painful wait for tickets!!! What a way to kick it off!

Best show I've seen in a long time. Great set, great energy, great crowd, cool Fenway video, perfect weather...it can't be over so soon...I need more!

We could barely hear that in the background on RM. Does anyone remember which show that version's been done at before?

The Red Sox/Fenway video was AWESOME! Hearing Sweet Caroline in (near) Boston was AWESOME!! Hearing a LET'S GO RED SOX chant, started by the crowd, echo through Great Woods was PRICELESS!!!!

The set list was great. It was tremendous to hear He Went to Paris.

I still don't think I've floated back to earth!

Glad you all had such a good time. It sounded like a GREAT show. Everything on RM seemed to be happening so fast. We could hear the Let's GO!....

We thought Jimmy was talking less so he could work in another couple of songs. When it ended at 10:45, I was surprised. Glad he got to do He Went To Paris.

I remember the feeling of the first concert so well. You described it perfectly. Wasn't it energizing!!

And by the way, I am going to be practicing that 'Hook the Ring' game so that I am a pro by next year's show

First and only time besides Wednesday night was the two Fenway shows last year.

So... I haven't heard. How bad did the retards that blew their grill up get burnt? Let's hope that the "powers that be" don't get any weird ideas about banning tailgating. Anyway, what an awesome, awesome show!! Can't wait to do it again in Philly! <i>(tick-tock...tick-tock...tick-tock)</i>

We have been to several of his benefit shows and wed. was right up there as far as Jimmy having a good time which always makes a better show. We were in the front row and Jimmy gave us one of his flip flops signed and dated. It was interesting to see how they handled the beach ball barrage without making a scene. All Jimmy had to do was look over at Charleston and within minutes the balls were corralled in front of the stage. There were some balls made of heavy cloth and those were the problem, they were interfering with them being able to perform, so everyone should be aware that those are dangerous and out of courtesy to Mr Buffett, not bring those in. FRONT ROW OR NOTHING!!!!!!

Welcome to BN!! Gotta ask, how the heck did you score front row seats?!?! being of course that you're from FL

Hey MA Buffett fan....I never know when I can get away..so I resigned myself to the fact that I will limit the number of shows I go to and splurge on front row. I go to Total Tickets online a week or so out and pay the price. I gets stupidly expensive but I feel it is worth being that close to Jimmy and feel like your part of the action. We got to shake Buffetts' hand several times and got to talk with Mr. Utley for an half hour after one of the shows, met with Shakira and had some photos with her. I think we have everybodys autograph by now. For me, even if I only see one show a year it is worth it....the signed flip flops are worth it!

Did anyone get their picture taken at the Margaritaville bus...

here's mine




EDIT: Woops, that pic just messed up the borders... maybe I should take it down...
